You know the term foolproof? As in designing things so even fools can’t screw up? We need a term like assholeproof or jerkproof. You can’t block dedicated intelligent malice but it should be possible to design against casual malice rather than relying on civility norms
What if casual malice has cathartic effects that prevent dedicated intelligent malice? Like, what if the choice is between malice at level 3 with probably 1 and malice at level 8 with probability 0.2?

Unlikely that there are absolute tradeoffs like that. Minority might behave that way, most will give up when casual malice is blocked.
