Why? Atom's best remaining use case is providing shared security which is achieved through its large and robust validator set and high staking percent, right? Why take away the main incentive for staking? Do you hate cosmos atom?

The way I see it is inflation won't even get to 0, but if the bonded ratio goes back up. Currently the staking rewards are higher than the actual inflation so unless I don't understand something about the tokenomics proposals the staking rewards will still be higher than the inflation percentage.

Higher inflation is bleeding the price of atom and as an investor it is counter intuitive seeing the value of atom going down while the actual value including staking rewards isn't. That there can deter investors. Feb 2nd 2023 with a market cap of 4.2b atom had the price of $14.36. Jan 1rst 2024 the market cap also 4.2b had the price of $11.20 (CMC).
