Sounds good in theory, doesn't work in reality.
Had it worked then we would have seen many more CEOs in prison.

The veil of liability is built into statute, and it's no accident.
Such so magic forcefield exists for you, though.
We're taking about different things. To take responsibility is volunteering to accept accountability without a fight.
In practice, almost everyone is held potentially or actually accountable for things they never had a choice in. Some are never held accountable for things they freely choose, because they have some way to dodge accountability.
The CEOs who don't accept accountability were lying when they said they were responsible.
There being a few edge cases where it doesn't work in doesn't mean it doesn't work in the majority of cases and that we shouldn't try to fix the edge cases.
