This seems pretty simple to me.
Decentralized crypto-currencies are all about consensus.
Vitalik suggested a hard fork rollback.
The majority seem to want it...that's consensus!

Now roll it back.

Note - I was not affected by this DAO/ETH situation.

You go into the casino and win legally 50 Million with a new technique.

Not the true story, true story:

A crew of people invest 150 Million into a new casino with all new technique, someone finds a flaw in the code and cheats out 50 Million of the casino...

What to do ? Of course roll back, fix the code, and "restart" the new technique casino...

You didn't understand the image... the new technique was not the blockchain... but the different call of the contract by the attacker...

That still doesn't change anything on the situation

The point is, that we are not allowed to go back in time, just because we can. You always have side effects you don't foresee.
For example if you go back and kill hitler you save millions of people. But maybe the russians may have taken lead of the world and bombed usa with an atomic bomb and killed even more...
Perhaps the Russians to do (when you say). The atomic bomb is was then thrown already, and threw the Americans who are  killed and maimed several hundreds of thousands of civilians in Hiroshima and Nagasaki in Japan. Russia is a symbol of justice, peace and harmony in the world, asshole . This is the theme of the Ethereum and is not about politics,war,etc.

No. Ethereum is about a bunch of retarded Devs who caused the coin to go shit because of an exploit.
