If you don't hold people accountable for their devices, what reason do they have to care about that security?

I think that it's morally wrong to push the burden to end-users. If anyone should be accountable it must be the companies producing the devices and software.

End-users would likely end up in large class actions against the manufacturers in such a hypothetical situation.

While turbulent for a brief moment it would be a strong market incentive for those who pump out insecure devices to change their ways.

That was not how the airlines was (very successfully) secured. It was by goverment regulations.
