It's hard to sell what your product specifically can't do, while your competitors are spending their time building out what they can do. Beloved products can make a whole lot of serious mistakes before the public will actually turn on them.
We need to stop calling ourselves engineers when we act like garage tinkerers.
Or, we need to actually regulate software that can have devastating failure modes such as "emptying your bank account" so that companies selling software to the public (directly or indirectly) cannot externalize the costs of their software architecture decisions.
Simply prohibiting disclaimer of liability in commercial software licenses might be enough.
It's only when someone tries to drive their loaded ox-driven cart through for the first time that you might find out what the max load of your bridge is.
