No.  Good wallets give you the freedom to do as you like.  There are infinite ways for the user to mess things up if they choose to do so, the wallet cannot prevent you from every.  For example, paying unnecessarily high fees is (and should be) allowed.

I guess I can't argue against someone who takes the stance "Wasting your Bitcoin and ruining your privacy should be allowed."

I have not used that samourai software, but don't they warn you that if you do not run your own node you rely on someone else's?  What else should they say?

No, they do not provide any warning to users about their data being shared with them.  @wallet guys closed the issue and said "Feel free to submit a PR if you so desire, but it will not be merged. Your proposed warning text makes no sense and claims made in said text are not true in the slightest." - https://web.archive.org/web/20230417145554/https://code.samourai.io/wallet/samourai-wallet-android/-/issues/458
