Haha, I didn't see that coming (sorta like dip and her manhole, right?)

Yes, I'd expect it to be marked. However, marking it is a stop-gap measure to increase visibility. Essential on obstacles which are less visible (soap spill on a tile floor, for example), and helpful on obvious but more dangerous obstacles such as an open hole in the ground. And it still requires the person to notice it. Had it been coned and she walked into it anyway, you'd be hearing her angry it wasn't taped off.

Yet, surprisingly, the human race managed to survive prior to the invention of the orange cone.
