I absolutely want this arrangement for developers. We need to grow up as a profession, and take responsibility for the consequences of our actions.
This isn't the 90s anymore. Today there's practically nothing you can do in the modern world without interacting with software. Buying food, going to the hospital, travelling, communicating, voting, going to school, using anything electrical, anywhere. Our society is completely dependent on software at this point. The fact that there's no professional ethics code with the appropriate oversight for the development and maintenance of software is utterly insane.
The points you bring up about the Hippocratic Oath are important problems to solve, rather than reasons not to try.
