Wait... didn't they advertise some utterly perfect blockchain oracle that could resolve disputes in the most objective way possible? Is Polymarket overriding that, or is that system what is inevitably failing (due to it being impossible to solve the oracle problem, despite blockchain advocates' claims to the contrary)?

That's a good point. I think the assertion that Polymarket is actively doing (or not doing) anything here is at least incomplete. As far as I know, resolutions are still via UMA, which is (at least formally) an independent entity. No idea how big overlaps in personnel and control are in reality.
