Yes, telling people what to do is a doomed approch, and I'm surprised that Matt would make that error. Bitcoin is underpinned by game theory, rather than coercion.
We need a clear explanation of exactly why this breaks the game (if it indeed does) and then understand how to make the game more secure without breaking it further. The explanation needs to include a full world view on a long timescale, with acts and reactions, beyond just one agent in one state considers a control play.
