I am pretty much this was because of fat fingers, but how an earth there's no security measures for this kind of thing? It's 2020 already and after seeing this kind of mistakes, i am pretty sure that ETH adoption is further away. Just one warning message informing about the possible huge mistake could have saved millions for this guy.

This is one reason why it is always repeated to the ears of many that we must alwayys use respected crypto currency wallet to store and keep our assets.
Also, as users, we need to always stop adding transaction gweis by ourselves, the wallet gives you options to send out tokens, such as low, norma and high transaction fee.

Don't select anything beyond that.
