2. To conclude your lengthy and non sense post, you should sent you bitcoins to wrong bitcoin wallet or else it will be lost forever is that what you mean OP?

Let's say that's the case. It is still not necessary to lose bitcoin just to learn your mistake. It is true you can learn from mistakes but if you are careful and observant you can prevent that situation. I've been using bitcoin since 2016 and I never mistakenly send to a wrong address. If you will send some big amounts I'm sure you check the recipient many times before confirming it.

There is a very popular saying that "Prevention is better than cure", but I guess OP is not aware of this. What can be prevented with just a little more caution and knowledge, the OP is instead asking that we must lose what we already have, that doesn't make sense to me.

Many people might get bankrupt if they followed such philosophy. Want to learn online banking? send to wrong person; writing your first check? write wrong person's name.
I hope you understand what's wrong.
