That's not what I'm saying. But sure, if you think you can write smart contracts without bugs for all means don't set a limit.

I'm saying you should define a ceiling for your smart contract so in case of a bug, no transactions over that ceiling go forward.

So if you have a stupid bug that causes you to transfer 1BTC instead of 0.001BTC you don't lose all your money.

What's the distinction? That just means you won't be able to use smart contracts for anything useful.
