Uuh... skipping over the fact that this is a pointless article, didn't Asimov himself write the three laws specifically to show it's a very stupid idea to think a human could cover all possible contingencies through three smart-sounding phrases?

Most of the stories are about how the laws don't work and how to circumvent them, yes.

Most peope never read Asimov and it shows.

I dont think reading Asimov would help for most people. I think most people will just not get the point of anything unless you spell it out

Critical thinking is indeed dead for much of the population.
