Nothing stops bob from being a total dick and lying to everyone and taking all their cash to Columbia for a party full of hookers and blow.

Yup. Cashu is a trust-based custodial system. All users need to trust the mint. The benefit is privacy, ease of use, and censorship resistance. The mint can only rug everyone or no one (you can’t be singled out and rugged or censored as an individual user). Only use a mint if you really trust it.
