Why rely on end devices? The infrastructure itself should be designed so that it cannot be broken that easily. Maybe we should return to metered connections, maybe we should implement a protocol to control routing.

The Internet has grown without proper planning using a lot of "quick and dirty" hacks (for example NATs, peering agreements) and today we just see the result. It reminds me of poorly designed email protocols that resulted in spam being the biggest part of email traffic.

If internet should wait until all use cases were created, it wouldn't exist. It's power was exactly that people could think on how to create things on top of was available. Many RFCs came afterwards.
