It still and will always be. They have set a dangerous precedence. If another group of large developers decide to revert a certain transaction. They could. The one platform that still has its integrity is ethereum classic
But Ethereum classic is still subject to the problems of Ethereum main's amateurish codebase.
but the core difference here is there is no precedence set. Especially since classics core belief is immutable transactions. As long as the community has that integrity. Then its safe. but ultimately. It is a consensus based system. So its not to say its not impossible
