There are a lot of very sharp, bright people out there.

Unfortunate corollary¹:  There are a lot of depressingly stupid people out there.

i can't disagree with you.
the problem with not attempting to make things foolproof when given reasonable evidence of human foolishness is then you become liable to litigation :P

skinning your knees as a toddler teaches you not to fall down.
or, well, i watched my son learned to walk and realized that throwing your hands up to catch yourself when you fall is a learned reflex, as his many early cranial scrapes attest. make the entire world soft enough and no one would learn to do that any more....
