If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?

Same here, but it's only about a year from going EOL and filling up with foreverday vulnerabilities. 
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

It was just water. The leak was on a potable water line. What was supposed to be a spill proof quick disconnect coupler malfunctioned when they disconnected it and didn't close the no spill valve.

Crooks use "dotted" Gmail addresses to file for fraudulent unemployment benefits, file fake tax returns, and bypass trial periods for online services. Not.evil.just.lame.

Well, if that's the way google does it, then that's the right way.
Besides, the google definition of "fraud" says that it's neither a crime nor evil, so what's the problem?

No, it is just inaccessible. It stays in the system however.

In a legacy banking system, you do not have money safe in the bank; you lent the fiat to the bank. It is not an asset, but a claim.

No, they still exist in that wallet, there's just no-one with the password.

Person died implies that password is gone
implies that the wallet is gone
implies the bitcoins are gone,
it just exist somewhere on disk but not accessible.
I guess its just like burning pile of cash,
it just turns into ashes
but it exists in another form which is not accessible anymore

Correct.
Nitin Sawant wrote: implies that the wallet is gone
Incorrect; it still exists, just without anyone who can open the wallet.
Nitin Sawant wrote: implies the bitcoins are gone,
They still exist too.
Nitin Sawant wrote: it just exist somewhere on disk but not accessible.
Exactly.
Nitin Sawant wrote: I guess its just like burning pile of cash,

No, because if you burn cash, you destroy part of the currency. With the same demand and less supply, the value of the rest of the currency would go relatively up to compensate. That does not happen in this example; the money still exists, you just can't use it anymore.

The real difference is that because of how ponzicoins a court order to release the funds to the heirs can't be enforced. Unless someone can crack the password they're effectively gone forever even though they're still formally on the ledger.
It's sort of like this, except it would be the banker that died with the keys to the bank, meaning the holders who are still alive are unable to withdraw their funds. I guess it's a lesson that we should all be careful where we store our valuables.
