So are support to try to build a systems that are idiot proof?  I would
say not... If someone neglect to lock their front door and is robbed,
is that the builders fault because he didn't install automatic locking

Firewalls is the best way to deal with network security.... and there
no system configuration that we can do to change that fact...
