I think that's a very great and open statement. This action will prevent a potential scenario where trades get reversed, which for me is a massive no go. Every exchange should follow that policy - if you can't guarantee that trades won't be reversed, then halt trading, it's that simple. Trading isn't a joke thing people do for fun. It requires a massive amount of time, dedication, risking your money, etc. If you after hard working made yourself a decent profit, and an exchange rolls back data, it's like someone (the exchange in this case) is spitting in your face.
