It's like all these cases I read about people accidentally sending 1 BTC or 10 to the wrong address, accidentally paying 1 BTC fees, or all these accidents.

Sending Bitcoin to the wrong address can happen to anyone, while paying 1BTC in fees is purely the result of people messing around with raw format transactions which they shouldn't. I did it once myself to find out that I sent a low dollar single input transaction with like 0.2BTC in fees due to wrong configuration.
