I don’t find market making or liquidity providing to be controversial

it still requires capital from their reserves to do what you describe, purchasing USDT for $1 each

the redemption mechanism is an incentive on its own. when Tether is below $1 purchase it yourself (pushing up the price of Tether) and go to the redemption window and get $1 for it regardless.
