Another menu will pop up because it has a three dot at the end of it. I would expect it to bring up disk utility with that removable drive in focus with the erase sub-page visible.
It prompts a dialogue so an unintentional erase is very unlikely to happen. And although it seems a bad placement, actually erasing the disks were a somewhat complicated thing for MacOS users for a long time. Since you had to launch an app under the “utilities” folder. And make a few selections. It was hard for a daily browser user at least. I think they just wanted to add a selection which the users can use to go the Disk Utilities app.
It should be a hard thing to do, unless you're a power user you would need to wipe a drive maybe once every 5 years. Even if you do need to entirely wipe a drive for a specific reason other than cleaning it there are great tools that will do it for you while giving you all the necessary warnings.

You see those 3 ellipses after “erase disk”? That means it will pop up a configuration/confirmation window after clicking. You can’t accidentally hit the wrong button and just delete all your stuff. You should know this.
Yeah, that’s right. In general, when there’s a '…' after a command in macOS, a prompt will open after clicking, asking for further input. This has been a neat concept for many years and is also implemented for the erase disk function :)
It sorta makes me feel like they have a software problem can cause an ejected disc to be erased- so their solution is to put erase disc right next to eject disc so whenever someone complains, they can just say they musta accidentally hit erase
Windows has had this since forever and never had the issue that I would click it accidentally. And even then, it brings up the option to choose how you want to format something.
people are used just clicking yes. So you click erase disk. A prompt appear saying are you sure you want to erase disk. You don’t think much and you assume it’s asking are you sure you want to eject the disc? Then you just quickly click yes, and then realize what you just did.

I think that would open disk utility and make you choose the options to confirm erasing it. I don't think they're stupid enough to put an instant erase button right on the context menu.
Either drag it to the trash or close the dialog box that comes up when you click erase, it’s not going to nuke it immediately. There are people who don’t have a clue how to use disk manager, or even that it exists. Apple could at least have placed it better though
