Technically true, but chains nowadays aren't really vulnerable to that same kind of attack just due to their sheer scale and diversification of controlling stakes compared to what they used to be, so I wouldn't consider it a particularly relevant issue today.

The relevant part isn’t which mistake happened, but that the fact that no mistake can be reversed.

Fixing one mistake is great and all, but it’s still a method of accounting whose ledger — by design — cannot be revised.
