It was not “manual”. It was using MetaMask, one of the most used wallets and most recomended one!

Its not like going to a shell and putting a random command. It was one of the most used GUIs for crypto!

MetaMask, and any wallet, lets the user sign transactions. Wallets can't know nor validate contract internals.
