we watched them change the rules in the US to force indexers to provide exit liquidity for the spacex IPO blunder via your dad's 401k. capturing the regulators is just part of what finance does.

The point is "them" was just 1 entity, and the affected "we" is a very small portion of the population who knowingly gambled on a risky index.
So...nothing really happened.
