I agree there should be punishment for gross, negligent stupidity. Let the market dole it out. It will make other more diligent.

Absolutely.  It's time for organizations that allow this sort of crap
to happen to step ASIDE for someone who will take one look at today's
situation, say "this is all useless crap", and do it right from the
ground up.  It is SO high time.  The incumbents deserve no better
than to crumble and fall.

I am seriously considering bailing out of at least one investment
fund whose name I've seen go by recently, on loudly-stated grounds
that they're too stupid to be trusted handling any of my money.  No,
that doesn't help anyone ascertain where to turn to instead..
