Limiting the options for individuals to invest in public investments, which any sort of investment, whether its a security, ETF, CD, stock, fund, note, trust, etc, whether its complex, or not is not justified. Simple investments would still have a risk, irregardless of banning and limiting certain individuals to be involved in any sort of investments.
Any sort of investment, simple, or complex will have an inherent risk financially, and that applies to any situation in life as well. Individual investors have the education, and knowledge available already to make educated decisions on their own investments. Individual investors have the responsibility to invest knowing that they will have a risk or reward as a result of their investments. That should not be determined by any private entity, or limited in any capacity.
