In the tweet on May 7th, Zhao mentioned that Binance had decided against a reorg, but then briefly pro-conned the situation.

On the pro side, by implementing a reorg, Binance could punish the hackers by moving the fees onto them. This would also act as a deterrent against future attacks, and would also test the reaction of the Bitcoin network to a reorg event.

On the con side, Zhao acknowledged that a reorg event might damage Bitcoin?s credibility, as well as potentially causing a permanent split in not only the Bitcoin blockchain but in the cryptocurrency community too.

how should we all think of it as a community  Huh
The Bitcoin network protocol was designed to be extremely flexible. It can be used to create timed transactions, escrow transactions, multi-signature transactions, etc. The current features of the client only hint at what will be possible in the future.
