They're your coins. Throw them off a bridge if you want. Meanwhile, people who stick with core tech have been burned zero times.
Why does the obsession with shiny new convenient thing outweigh people's good sense not to risk thousands or hundreds of thousands of dollars? If that amount of money were printed out in front of you, you'd take extreme measures to protect it. "Don't use an un-audited third party piece of software that controls the fate of your life savings" is the most basic step.
It occurs to me that you might be arguing against this because you have a large sum stored in some third-party tech. If that's the case, I urge you to snap out of it and transfer your coins somewhere safe immediately.
I say "snap out of it" because that's the phrasing I would've used with myself, right before I lost money in Mt Gox. The only reason that happened is because I never stopped to ask myself "Is this a good idea?"
