"However, I've never seen it disputed that money printing causes hyperinflation." It can be caused by that, but you have to question what would cause a government to keep printing money when it became clear that inflation was too high? With the example of German hyperinflation, printing/creating money wasn't the cause of hyperinflation, it was a symptom that resulted from forces in the German economy, specifically high demands from foreign countries as repayment for WW1 (even though it's debatable whether Germany really caused the war or were pushed into it by Britain, and I say this as someone from Britain) and recklessness on the part of private banks and investors. The German government didn't drive the country into hyperinflation. It's worth noting that even the German central bank was privately owned and run at the time, so all the money printing was happening in the private sector. I'd be happy to explore an example of when a government created hyperinflation, are there any examples you know of?
