What kills me about S3 is that the use cases for publicly accessing S3 contents over HTTP have got to be vanishingly small compared to every other use of the service. I appreciate there's legacy baggage here but I seriously wonder why Amazon hasn't retired public S3 and launched a distinct service or control for this that's harder to screw up.

Public access is disabled by default and it warns you when you enable it. How much more idiot proof does it need to be?

Wouldn't say so, loads of people and organisations use it as a pseudo-CDN of sorts AFAIK
