We are still at the beginnings. With Bitcoin you are your own bank and some people are not used to have such responsibility and freedoms it gives.

one of the pro-consumer features of the regular banking system is that it is possible to undo mistakes

not possible with bitcoin

It is possible, but sometimes it is not. If you sent money to wrong account, bank can't just take it back from other party account.

On the other hand, I by mistake sent bitcoin to a wrong address and couldn't believe that someone who owned that address sent me all bitcoins back week or so later. There are good souls out there :)
