What’s interesting is that we don’t really have this kind of structure in place elsewhere to my knowledge, outside of open source software. There’s a limit to how much legal liability you can shed, and even after that social liability is much more fickle.

It’s the free (no payment) part that makes the difference and outside of the Open Source movement many things are not provided free of charge because of the associated costs.
Similar things happen for research papers or generally scientific content though. You won’t be successful in suing an author of a study for incorrect content either.
