The problem with throw-away prototypes is that often don't get thrown away and become the actual system. 'Hey it works, mostly, why spend money improving it?'.

No tool or paradigm will solve the problem of working for morons.

I spent a couple of years not that long ago basically wrapping a proper production system around a low code system because it had grown so complex by the time I joined that trying to just do a rewrite was not feasible in a reasonable amount of time given our small team. Instead we built two-way sync of the data and built new functionality in a proper system and gradually replaced function by function when we could justify the time cost.
