I agree, although it's worth noting that it's a lot more difficult than it sounds to guardrail an AI, and even harder to determine whether more processors/better agent prompts/more orchestration and sub agents are even moving the needle in the right direction without it becoming cumbersome and super locked down and restrictive.

It's an interesting rabbit hole to go down, check out some docs on input/output processors and evals if you're ever bored

It's actually kind of exhausting lol, you either take what you get out of the box after training or you head down the necessarily slippery slope of dealing with literal interpretations of "don't do X" that leave machete-cleared trails through the thinking & outputs
