Lackluster comparison (a modern consumer router should be more like a self steering car), but modern cars indeed have safety features to prevent you from crashing. Of course, both with the car and the router there are good arguments that you should be able to do the dumb thing if you know you need it. If it has to be explicitly enabled after intense warnings, the protective duty (as someone knowing better) can possibly be considered fulfilled - or you can still argue that it should be especially hard to do to block out people who don’t listen to warnings.
