SR's still up, and I think everyone trusts DPR to actively protect them like a magical father-figure enclosing them all in a dome while the world burns. Tor also fixed the problem in their FF bundle before it was exploited. Only outdated versions were vulnerable. Further, there are now established alternatives if SR fails -- they're no longer theoretical sites which may pop up overnight if SR fails.

I don't think the news and lack of movement shows resilience in the BTC price (nor lack of dependence on SR and clones) so much as it showed trust in DPR and the resilience of SR. (author mentioned this as a possibility)
