If warranties are for when things break on their own, and insurance is for accidents, then we should have a separate "warranty" for heart attacks vs "insurance" for trama (self.showerthoughts)

That's pretty much how insurance was designed initially. Once corporate health plans started becoming the norm it became less about risk and more about having a middle man for everything. It's actually a huge cause of why things are so expensive now outside of insurance. They don't actually expect you to pay that.
