Well, some of this safety mess has gone overboard at the same time people are getting more stupid. It's sometimes hard to find a middle ground. I was raised in a house where there was no electricity in the house when it was built. When electricity was added the wiring was feed through the walls and the receptacles were just screwed to the plaster lath without being in a box.

The service wires were run through the attic as just bare copper wires on glass insulators. The wires were still 4' apart but sometimes people went in the attic. As of last July I know the house was still there and I know prior to 2014 nobody was ever hurt on the wiring. People just used to be more careful with things like that.
