> it is kind of wrong to blame the tool for the mistakes made by the one wielding it.
I always find takes like this bizarre. We're constantly improving the safety of the tools and devices we use. Our history is filled with examples of tools designed without safety in mind leading to deaths or maiming or other injuries. Thankfully, the people who came before us saw that it was up to us to reduce the likelihood of accidents by improving the tools that we use.
Just look at the aerospace industry. They didn't say "well, don't blame the plane, the pilot should've gotten it right". Often times improvements in planes were to avoid common mistakes because of how fallible we human beings are, instead of holding us up to impossible standards.
