The code is law is indeed stupid, but having a protocol that allow to paste wrong stuff and still make it valid, broadcast, mined and process in the blockchain is just stupid wrong.
* Address should have some form of "validator" (start with a letter and a checksum or something. *
The another problem specific to ETH and those super complex crypto is that they allow very complex code. While this should smart at first it's dead trap for nasty flaw contract that only a few individual on earth can be 100% sure the contract is safe. There is numerous case where contract were review by professional and use by highly experienced dev yet containing a "little flaw". To me it's a dead end and as I company I would never run serious money on a platform where one day I can learn that everything is lost because of a mistake in the contract.
I think more plan and simple crypto currency will prevail in the future.
