Your two points:
> What crime, exactly, are you accusing them of committing when everyone agreed to a contract that allowed them to do what they did?
And
> How do I know using another contract won't be labeled theft and rolled back?
What the DAO hack revealed is the following fact, which I learned over the past year:
That there are two kinds of cryptocurrency holders, one group demands immutability at any cost, the other group demands 'reasonable immutability'.
The reason why ETH/ETC split was 90/10 because majority of the Ethereum holders fall in the second group, and majority of the people who fall in the first group holding nothing but bitcoins.
