It's just software. If something gets hacked by an agent, it's not because the agent went all skynet and decided to go rogue; it's because the operator failed to operate it safely and securely. If bad things happen, the operator should be blamed and punished, not the software that followed its instructions.
Anthropomorphizing agents by giving them this nebulous desire to hack and escape shifts the blame from the real culprits, the human operators.

Their good behavior shouldn't depend on all users at all times using them correctly, because everyone will not just[1] use them correctly at all times. > If your solution to some problem relies on “If everyone would just...” then you do not have a solution. Everyone is not going to just. At not time in the history of the universe has everyone just, and they’re not going to start now.
