This is confusing definitions again. Are you using "inflationary" here to refer to the supply of the currency? If so, then sure, but 1) refers to price inflation/deflation, which is not a predictable thing.
So you can compare how "inflationary" currencies are by 2 & 3, but not by 1 -- that's not a mechanical effect. Even the most stringent monetarist in the world wouldn't at a minimum factor in monetary velocity into the value equation. And monetary velocity is a behavioral thing that can be mediated both by availability of current and future capital as well as liquidity preferences of individuals viewed in aggregate.
