 Because I disagree with what you’re saying (whether it’s actually inflationary or deflationary can change over time and I think it’s most likely to prove deflationary due to lost coins and halvings primarily.) and apparently I believe in that as much as you believe in what you’re saying. Maybe if you could spell mischaracterize I would give your definitions more consideration.

 I type fast an make mistakes. Proper spelling isn't that important. Trying to use that as an insult is strange. Again... It's not really a belief. It's just a fact. I'm not trying to argue with you. I've tried to explain it several times and I'm not sure if you're really even reading what I'm typing or trying to actually comprehend it. I hope you have a gn anyways though. You're free to disagree, but you should be able to explain why you disagree. Deflationary money would mean there would be less supply over time. Bitcoin will always have 21 million units. That's not more supply or ess supply. It's a fixed supply. There is a third option. 

Inflation = +1
Deflation = -1
Fixed = 0 

The distribution schedule and max supply has remained the same since the genesis block and will always remain the same. If it doesn't, it's not Bitcoin.
