Agreed that this is a good thing. Strict dogma is bad and unsustainable. The core team has backed off from "the code is the construct" philosophy, both implicitly by executing this fork, and explicitly in other publications. It's a black mark on the trust record for Ethereum, but hard lessons learned are the best ways to grow. Folks that look at this as a black and white "Ethereum can no longer be trusted" are ironically applying strict dogma in the other direction. I am not making any calls about the value of Ethereum. Just that evolving philosophy and software systems is a very good and necessary thing.
