You previously used the phrase "100% democratic halving algorithm." If you want to argue that the system is better than democratic control over our financial systems then that's a completely different discussion. I don't agree that "the best ideas win." I certainly don't agree that the halving system is a "best idea." It massively and almost permanently privileges early adopters, creating a landed gentry of the modern world in a completely unjust. The ideas most valued by a particular set of people (either the core devs or the miners, depending on how you define BTC) are what wins. That's aristocracy.
