Isn't attuning only for magic properties that you have to activate? The post seems to treat it like something it just does, like a silver weapon.
I’m not aware of any nonmagical items that require attunement, so I think that point also stands. If you were to use such an item without attunement and it were magic, you would do the bludgeoning damage and not the radiant damage.
It's non magical, therefore attunement is not required for the effect. Attuning is a process, right? You spend time with the item, maybe fiddle with all the bits, really understand what it does and how it works. If you attempt to undertake that process with this item it will kill you.
Furthermore, that extra damage should really be conditional, you might not always close the demon core on impact. Maybe on an 8 for damage it's such a direct hit that the radiant damage triggers
