Anet, do you have a plan for when the gold: gem ratio gets out of control? Because it’s on its way there.

Yes and when it is 100g for 1 gem and say a few hundred players decide to cash in w/their credit cards and go on a shopping spree on the BL what then
The rates are dynamic, you cannot set a high price then trade at that price, the prices will change as you trade, even inside a single trade if it’s a large enough trade.
Let me make this clear for you and for Anet as well. The ppl who aren’t buying gems with money most likely aren’t going to buy gems with money. It’s a supply and demand thing. If you’re not supplying something that constitutes someone spending real life money then the demand goes down. Or something like that.
They’re curves and the at every price the demand for each side is different, as the price changes, new users enter and leave the market and trade differently. It’s not as simple as some will buy and some won’t, the curves are quite dense.
It’s working as intended.
