Thanks for writing that. I just wanted to add on to your last point and better justify it.

It is true that better systems will make rare but terrible incidents less likely, but in this case, better IoT which is easier to secure and remain self-sovereign over actually expands what people are willing to use IoT for. I imagine there are a swath of compelling avenues ready to be developed if not for the warranted hesitancy of anyone managing the security of these systems. Sure, the security now isn't terrible or problematic if used right, but when the security is robust, simple and dead-easy then the innovation up top gets uncapped.
