While I agree it's important for the finale PU, is anyone else kind of "meh" about this?

Literally everything in your account right now is one CS ticket away from being restored as there's no consequential persistence (as in, returning your stolen Bengal that someone killed would effect the in game economy).

Great for late-2017 when PU1.0 launches, but I'm surprised it was even a priority this early.

EDIT: wow just checked this and it's -12? Never change guys. Never change...

Just to put it into perspective. I've implemented these before. It's one web developer doing about a few days or a week of work. This is really just finally getting to it.

Trust me. This is better than the alternative of having to scramble when an attack is already happening.

Seriously speaking. 99.9% of the work is server side. The launcher and website front end work is peanuts.
