> There are ways

You didn't even explore any of the options for different types of "undo" operations that could be possible in contracts. You seemed to simply assume recreating the exact same situation that exists in traditional finance and responded based on that.

There are several other ways of doing it that I can think of, all with their own pros and cons. There are even a couple that have already been applied in crypto that I can think of and I'm sure many that I'm not aware of.

And why would you assume I even meant "reimplement traditional chargebacks as they are today"? My recommendation: Hold off on forming strong opinions too early in the process of learning about something.

How about an example? I still don't see how it's possible in a decentralized system but go ahead prove me wrong. I'm not trying to be offensive I'm genuinely curious.
