The point is, it doesn't need a lunatic, let the person who has never
put the wrong fuse in a BS1363 plug just get things working cast the
first stone, let the person who then remembers to replace it A.S.A.P
cast the second...


As pointed out already, you can't put a wrong fuse in a 13A
plug. All appliance cords and appliancs are required to remain
safe when protected at 16A nowadays, so all* BS1362 fuse values
are OK.


So if fuse rating of below 13A are irrelivant, why are they still
advalible...


Well, they don't do any harm either, and BS1362 fuses aren't
only used in plugs.
