"Bubbles are good because they leave pieces for others to pick up for free" has to be one of the most completely insane and morally bankrupt economic ideas I've ever heard. This only makes sense if you take a fully individualist, zero-sum perspective and entirely disregard all other perspectives. Nevermind the opportunity cost.

As far as I'm concerned there is no daylight between this idea and someone fighting safety measures because "trainwrecks leave free parts behind for me to pick up and build my own trains out of".

I have no moral qualms with investors losing money if it means the rest of society benefits. Sam spending billions of other people's money so that chinese researchers can make chatgpt clones for cheap is a net benefit for society.
