While I do agree that game is a bad example, the argument still holds IMHO.
Ethereum has been advertised from the very beginning that it is a decentralized platform where the only rule/law will be the code, and no one authority can control that. However, what they are doing right now is exactly gaining control back from the code, hence making the platform less or even not decentralized.
I know this probably will get me a lot of downvotes but if there always will be a central group of people that I need to trust, I'd rather trust existing banks which have a lot of existing experience than a group of software engineers who might be experienced in coding, but not so experienced in finance.
I admit that it's very sad those much money was involved, but I believe the people who took the money away(I don't want to call them attackers, they are really not) just played the rule smartly and did nothing wrong.
