This indeed needs some improvement. I've made modifications in that regard following your message. Download the install package of HikaShop on our website and install it on yours and you'll get the modifications. It should then work properly: - warn the user in the backend when saving a product like this - forbid add to cart and remove the button when no variants are available.

I confirm the Warning message to the operator in Backend - and the add to cart button also removed.
