> Most cryptocurrencies are designed such that the concept of "returning" stolen funds is not really meaningful.
Which is why these things are not features, but bugs, in cryptocurrencies. The core design principles of cryptocurrencies are actually bugs, if you think about it.

It's a system designed around a different set of trade-offs. Calling a bug doesn't really make sense. For instance, using full disk encryption means that you lose all your data if you forget your keys. That's not an issue if you use icloud (which presumably has an account recovery process). Based on this, can you say that the "core design principles of full disk encryption are actually bugs"?
