Yeah I agree with the profound harms; it's just that they need to be weighed against the benefits that come from these markets. The ability to predict, hedge, etc. Of course sports contracts are a pure social loss. But when regulators get in the business of deciding what is a worthwhile contract, there is a risk of throwing the baby out with the bathwater. So "I'm not sure" doesn't mean I'm against, it means I am kind of torn between these two things.
