> which doesn't allow anyone to change its emission rate Bitcoin changes its emission rate every 4 years. A fixed emission rate is far more desirable. Something like 1 coin per second forever looks more attractive and immutable than bitcoin's arbitrary capped emission, that doesn't guarantee security in the long term when block subsidy runs out.

No. The policy is set in stone. 100% predictable. That's what I am talking about; it doesn't matter if that policy implies a 4 year halving.

  The emission curve is set in stone. But you talked about emission rate, which in Bitcoin's case halves every 4 years.
