Right, and as is shown inevitably in real life (The DAO, BTC 0.7/0.8 fork, censoring of scam or Russia related BTC addresses, ...), the messiness of reasonably well understood and regulated human governance (law, elections, ...) is replaced by governance of the algorithm plus a bunch of unelected, unaccountable, and largely even unknown humans.
