So if you tried to log on tomorrow and SE had deleted your character, your reaction would be "Well, I agreed to the TOS that said they could, so that's fine"?

Actually, if anything I recall mention that SE could demolish your plot if they suspected RMT involvement, this then, is nothing more than an addendum to that.
When the lead developer says "these older MMOs also had a system where your house would break down if you didn’t log in after a while in order to have you continue your subscription, but this is a thing of the past and we won’t have any system like that" I think it's reasonable to expect that they won't have any system like that, and to be shocked, disappointed, and voice criticisms when they announce a system like that.
