I think the canonical sort of approach here is to make them confirm what they're doing. When you delete a GitHub repo for example, you have to type the name of the repo (even though the UI knows what repo you're trying to delete).

If the table name is SuperImportantTable, you might gloss over that, but if you have to type that out to confirm you're more likely to think about it.

I think the "meat space" equivalent of this is pointing and calling: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pointing_and_calling (famously used by Japanese train operators)

this is cool. I have been an andon cord guy forever
