People need to get out of the idea that just because something or someone has extra 0s in their account, that they should be more liable for things. Mistakes can happen at all levels, if society intends to build fair and equitable environments, it needs to stop looking at group A or group B differently. Don't forget that if there is an undue burden to be 100% all of the time, it will be priced into the offering at some point, leading the end user to foot the bill.

The thing to note is that if someone loses a lot of money, they are treated far better in terms of societal resouces (courts, judges, police time etc.) than those who lose small amounts, even though if the system was fair all losses would be treated equally. For example: if you tell the police you’ve had $500 in damage done to your car, they may get as far as filing a report but nothing else will usually happen. If a company has $500 million in property damage done, there will be an enormous investigation and the DA will be actively involved etc. In other words, group A and group B are already looked at differently.
