This is the same kind of argument that you shouldn't have to wear seat belts because just don't crash, duh.
Why do we have traffic lights?? Just don't hit each other, duh.
You shouldn't need emergency shutoffs at gas stations, don't have a fire stupid!
Hand rails on stairs? C'mon, just don't trip.
Confirmarion dialog on deleting data? Well, just don't click the wrong thing 🤦
It's beyond obtuse
