Dark patterns, aka reverse psychology, are rather fucked up by their very nature…

Eh, no two ways about it. Wealth hoarding is exactly the same choice as “push the button, get a million, but someone dies”. Same fucking thing. Literally

Or maybe don’t try and drive a screw in with a hammer?

It’s just not good for 99% of the shit it’s marketed for. Sorry.

I feel it’s reasonable to recognize the wealth he has collected, and to conclude he is not my ally.

I don’t fucking care who it is, wealth hoarding causes immeasurable harm, not to mention requires a sociopathic mindset. So…yeah, I’m not even giving him a chance. I got better shit to waste my time on…
