I am not convinced by this from Jane and the FSC at all.
The super system needs to be more flexible to support a decent level of
retirement for people. How many people retire without owning a property and have a rent liability- surely some flexibility to structure your own retirement should be looked at. Adding a lever gives people some options.

The constant pushback from industry on some of these reforms are just sounding protective of a system that needs to better serve the consumer.

With good advice and guidance, someone could make an informed decision on property vs amassing super. Sounds sensible to me.
