It is not obvious that people with modern high wealth, which is often abroad/offshore/crypto/non-tangible really benefit that much from state protection.
I think they do. If you have, say, a stake in a public company, you benefit from the various regulations and disclosure rules that essentially make your money harder to take away. And certainly countries with stronger legal systems are preferable for keeping your money.
Disclosure rules have absolutely nothing do to with how easy it is to take wealth away. In most large public corporation the actual assets are usually hidden away in layers of subsidiaries. These subsidiaries are privately held, so even if public ownership of a corporation would somehow magically protect the ownership rights, this protection would not have worked for most companies.
