And something about appearing before a judge who could reject the change for any reason they wanted, including reasons like “I don’t like what color shirt you are wearing today”.

Most people have no idea what FDIC is. They have confidence in banks because “that’s where you put money”. They have no concept of what their personal bank failing would mean.
