But yes, the typical rulings in these cases are dead hand and misdeal, respectively.
Actually the problem is that a player who looks that their hand and likes it, doesn't accept the 5th card and it goes back to the top of the deck. But a player with a bad hand accepts the 5th card with the hope that the hand will improve.
Players should not get this option...
