Regulations are the costly part of regular finance. DeFi is exploring a low friction space in finance and need to be given the freedom to continue to do so.

$100m fines, chargebacks, compliance, transaction fees and the labor behind these are all fat that could be trimmed with DeFi.

Yes, I know. These are the things I like about regular finance and don't want to give up. All of those things are pro-consumer except the transaction fees.

DeFi has not demonstrated an ability to eliminate transaction fees or even to make them predictable or consistently low! It's the worst of both worlds.
