While they do have potential flaws and their society isn't portrayed as perfect, I wouldn't consider this a flaw (ie. a negative character trait). Rather it's an uncontrollable part of their nature that they can't be blamed for.

Their more conscious use of creation magic might be viewed differently, depending on more information we don't have yet, but if just thinking of something terrifying is enough to cause that thing to spontaneously come into true existance, and once they've had the thought it's too late, there's not a great deal they can do about it besides try very hard to not let anyone think of terrifying things.
