I grow quite weary of the users around here scrambling every time we hit our 10 cent support range. Lowering inflation will do nothing. Lowering the powerdown period will do nothing. In fact, changes like this only serve to lower the value of the network by proving to the world that these decisions can happen on the whim of a few dozen users. That's not going to inspire any kind of confidence from outside the network, I guarantee it.

This.
