Thank you.
Please clarify that I'm not at all insistent on the part about SPS being lowered to 5-7% from 10%. I just think it's prudent to consider, but not a dealbreaker if we start at 10%. I'm broadly in favor of an inflation funded SPS.
I just strongly believe it should come from vesting rather than nerfing author/curation. If the EIP is fairly successful, we should be very reluctant to take it from businesses, genuine authors, genuine engagement and staking curators other than to the extent it's required to promote honest voting practices which is what EIP is designed to do.
On the other hand I see very little reason that anyone would defend vesting interest that strongly. An extra 1-2% for stakers on an underlying asset that's as volatile as Steem has a negligible impact on prospective investors/stakers. Yet it's quite expensive for the system as a whole. Taking the 10% from vesting interest should really be reconsidered.
