The dao hack was the result of a textbook concurrency error, similar to errors that can result from not using database transactions. Crippling the language is not the answer. Just look at code that works with Bitcoin. It is convoluted beyond belief. Read the Lightning whitepaper. It's 60 pages of complex hacks to accomplish something that can be explained in 5 minutes (if you don't have to jump through the Bitcoin hoops), and implemented in a few hundred lines of ethereum code.
