I think that telling people to empty their savings account is bad advice of similar kind as asking them to sell their kidney, both in regards to the consequences to people and in regards to the consequences to MIRI.

The people suffer for no good reason.
MIRI gets a bad rep for destroying people's lives.
Everyone loses.
