Hmm I wonder why the downvotes? Maybe people felt this did not add enough to the discussion. Let me try again with more words.
I am pointing out that the world is full of risk. Under-prepared kids with half-developed prefrontal cortexes driving cars is a risk that we accept in exchange for the societal good that comes from reliable access to fast transportation. Poorly considered knock-knock attacks on pacemakers is a risk that we can choose to accept in exchange for the societal good that comes from the freedom to create and market security testing devices to the masses.
In other words, as I've said before, don't blame the tools, blame the humans, and expect some eggs to get broken along the way. The goal should not be zero risk, as that's unobtainable and leads to warped priorities and dangerous decisions.
