Does anybody else find that, even though this might have been a "sensible" decision, particularly for people who have a vested (i.e., financial) interest, that now a lot of the "wow" factor and everything that made Ethereum exciting, has just evaporated? Now it's clear that rather than being idealistic and principled for the greater good, it's simply nothing more than a way for people to make money and for the powers that be to retain the status quo. Business as usual, "the system" will prevail. The magic has gone.
