Yes, I do have to agree.
I really hope Shopify is able to catch up with the other e-commerce platforms in terms of theme ongoing development and general features.
I first raised concerns with this issue over 3 years ago and since then, multiple notable e-commerce brands using the Shopify platform have been exposed in media articles since their stock levels were made public by this loophole (adding 1,000 units to basket and then trying to check our, etc).
I believe it would be within shopifys best interest to protect its commerce customers with this feature without requiring the recurring purchase of a subscription which is not economical.
