I'm not sure what the interface for trading should be, but some interfaces are definitely meant to have friction. The common example is React's `dangerouslySetInnerHTML`. It's a long and annoying name, with the word "dangerous" in it, it just screams "code smell", and that's the idea. It makes it harder to do the wrong thing, and makes it more likely for only people who know what they're doing to use it.
Whether trading/stock markets should have friction, and how much? I honestly don't know. There's obvious questions about nanny states, and giving people freedom to take risks, but there's also large actors taking advantage of the fact that they understand risk more than individuals and exploiting them.
