While overall, your take on what makes an account valuable is an interesting take on the subject, it looses credibility the more you read on... Starting by the simple fact that you undermine your own point by saying that it is less of a problem because ...
You will get your stuff back ...
Ok, sure you will, ...eventually. in the meantime, you could very well end up without a dime for a couple weeks! We could go in and out about identity theft and how it can ruin lives..
And while you are right that social media accounts are very valuable for celebrities, companies, notorious figures and so on, for the average user , it simply doesn't... Saying that your Social media account is more valuable than your bank accounts is utterly absurd. And even for celebs and other public figures, I very much doubt they would rather have had their bank account compromised... (I.e. the very recent Bezos saga).
Besides all that, advocating that one could be less secure than another, is nothing if not counter-productive, users should make their less secure accounts MORE secure, and yes, shedding light on the real value those could hold is a very meaningful and relevant way shifting behaviors towards better security!
