UNI should become an oracle token Strategy/Tokenomics Discuss

Summary:
Discussion post by Vitalik alerts two problems.
(1) Algorithmic stablecoins need an oracle for the price of ETH/USD to function; they need an oracle for USD (the off-chain fiat asset) and not on-chain instantiations of USD.
(2) Synthetic assets need an oracle for the price of ETH denominated in whatever asset they are mirroring.

To solve this it proposes that Uniswap and the UNI token step in and provides an oracle that is specialized to providing price data thats robust and extremely costly to manipulate and attack.

Update 1:
Significant pushback from multiple users who believe Chainlink is better equiped to address issue

Update 2:
Arguments for unique value of Uni oracle as opposed to Chainlink

Update 3:
Reiterations of the divergent nature of this project to Uni's original intention. The concern, however, are paralleled by a recognition of the value such a project could potentially add to UNI
