There has yet to be a design for any product that fully accounts for that. Never underestimate how stupid people can be.

Look what they did to gas can spouts, sued blitz for years because idiots poured gas on open fires and got lit up. So we got lawyer designed spouts now. No change, now the idiots just unscrew the spout and pours it right from the can...

Oh lawd. Why do people insist that a design that requires you to use your trigger finger on the trigger area of the gun as you make the trigger available to that finger can possible be "a perfectly good holster"?
It was a bone headed idea when they designed it and it is still now. Good riddance.

Actually, you have a better grip on the gun than the thumb design, since that design requires adjusting your grip between pressing the button/lever and firing. If you use the serpa correctly, you finger should be straight and end up on the frame above the trigger guard.

A bad designs is one where a necessary action can lead to a fatal consequence... I don't know, maybe like putting the holster release by the trigger, forcing the user to depress their trigger finger into the gun just as the trigger becomes available.
I'm not sure you understand, I'm not saying it can't be used safely, I'm saying it's a horrible design just like it would be horrible to put a "wide open throttle" button next to the turn signal selector on a car. It just doesn't make sense and can't be defended as a design choice.

I press and pull, and my thumb is on the middle of the slide.

Back OT
You should write for the "Penthouse Forum" section of a gun magazine.

+1 for throwing all the serpa holsters into a volcano.
