Heh. It appears I have ruffled a few feathers.
Only within the importance of your own mind really. That is you ruffling feathers. The idea, which is not unique btw, is one that crops up in many various forms and then tries to propagate throughout the Eve IDTenT Shopping Network.

What this ultimately means is there are no consequences for scamming and so scammers permeate the game and distrust is rife in Eve. And so, more than in real life, you better keep an eye on your own stuff, because if you lose it say bye-bye to it for good.
Again, you are dragging your own thread off topic for some reason. You suggest a feature to create personal daily spending limits and then try to connect it to scamming.
Non-contiguous thinking here. You may want to get that looked at.

You are only accountable to one individual, "me, myself and I".

If anything his two sentences, 'There is plenty accountability' and 'You are only accountable to one individual'. don't go together - if you're only accountable to yourself then, no, there is not 'plenty of accountability' in the game, unless you're the only person playing the game.
You are the only one playing your account in this game. (One hopes this so.)
Plenty of accountability refers to the fact you have the freedom to do all that you wish, and don't wish, to do with your own resources. No one can impose their will upon you and no one will be watching out for you. That is except yourself. That is plenty of accountability because any more accountability implies that either you get to impose your standards and limits upon another or someone else does it to you.
That is TOO MUCH accountability.
Now if you can't seem to trust yourself with your own money please feel free to wire it to me. I promise that I will put it far from your self-admittedly irresponsible/incompetent hands. Of course another choice might be to deposit in eBank since they promise to give you interest and return it as you request. (Note I did not make such guarantees.)

I guess I am criticizing alt users in and their style of play in the way I worded 'legit in-game device', but only in an 'if only it could have been this way' nostalgic no-substance kind of way.
Rather big of you isn't it? You want a tool to support your way of thinking but yet you want to criticize others who have solutions to your problem without being needy.

I don't think CCP even made a decision about including alts, it was just an inevitable thing that had to happen, and does fit with the clone culture of this game world.
Highlighted the important part. Who cares if you do or do not think? It is not about what you think at all, it's historical. You can simply ask about the choices that led to alts and various other things. That is instead of coming here and suppositioning your faulty sense of affairs as reality that others must comply with.

I am allowed to make improvement suggestions aren't I?
Not all suggestions are good. As an example, suggesting you pull your head out of your
fourth point of contact is not going to produce any positive results. Neither is your ill conceived and poorly researched solutions to your own incompetence or inability.
And don't worry. My feathers are not ruffled, I'm not nerdraging. I'm always like this in the face of continued foolishness. (Decided to avoid the mod-hammering for telling you that you are being stupid - Ooops.)
