Sure we all don't get it right 100% on the first write. For this reason we test and iterate. Equally you could say that it is pure hubris that a language will enable you to make your code right 100% of the time.
You mean the vector::operator[] is an example of fast-and-potentially-UB ? I don't see any UB if the constraints are met (keeping the index within valid range).
If they are not willing in a specific case they for sure had specific reasons not to be.

I don't see any UB if the constraints are met (keeping the index within valid range). I don't understand this line of reasoning when it's plain that the contraints are not met. Routinely. It happens all the time. Again, see the CVEs.
