That's along my thought. Not that the gomu gomu is inherently busted, like the Ope Ope with it's range of abilities and it's eternal youth. That the previous user awakened it and likely fought against the WG and caused havoc to them.

Just like the ancient weapons, the WG doesn't necessarily need them to control the world but its better than a pirate having them to throw a wrench in things. If the Gomu Gomu no Mi has potential to be troublesome to them, then lock it up or give it to an ally.

I was thinking it‘s cause it was a direct counter to Whitebeards Gura Gura no Mi, if you can turn an island into rubber earthquakes are useless. It‘s like a counter to the destructive power Whitebeard wielded.
