This is a really good point - regardless of whether you believe that losing his save file is a net good or net bad for this person (and I believe the latter), it's incredibly important to realize that this guy has no control over what happens from this point on - Google does.

We want to be in charge of making our own decisions - not Google, or Apple, or Facebook, or some other SaaS provider.
