It is the standard for all security domains - police, army, etc.

I would reword it to say that security should work for the oblivious user, and we should not depend on good user behavior (or fail to defend against malicious or negligent behavior).

I would still say the ideal is for the security interface to prevent problems - like having doors so we don't fall out of cars, or ABS to correct brake inputs.
