How many wons does a car cost? Why would I know it? You seem to keep missing the point that the unit of payment doesn’t need to be inflationary. And that there is no magical requirement for it to be a temporary store of labor value.

You confuse a store of value with a unit of account.

Ok? If there is no fundamental difference then how is swapping one for another supposed to bring an economy to a halt?
