What I Saw Wrong With Steem 3 Years Ago: Can You Figure Out My Symbolism?

I don't think many people saw my Steemicide Hotline video series from 2017. 

I am wondering if you can tell me what I saw as the main flaw of the blockchain designers/engineers of Steem's early days:

Steemit is an example of when code is made and humans are expected to fit into _it_, rather than designing it around humans first. (i.e ethics and morals reflected in the code)

Ethics and morals "reflected" in the code:  it's reflected because in other words you don't know anything about any of that, which is why choice of language betrayed you. Ethics are implemented, if they could be, or they aren't (ie, the ethics of Microsoft Word). Morals on the other hand, I'm thinking kinda like ethically designed guns, right?
