Your argument, in case of computing devices (which means with well-defined physical connectors, as opposed to wetware), boils down to "just because." Android and iOS used to ask for permission, a long time ago - but it was dropped as "not user friendly". So, the problem is not "impossible to do", merely "inconvenient w/r/t other goals".
As for not giving physical access...easier said than done. Looking around, I see multiple such devices lying around here, with the owner within 20 m, but not paying attention. IMNSHO asking for authorization is far more logical than assuming "whoever can get their hands on it is authorized."
