@tarazkp - It is still too early my time to wrap my head around all of the numbers in this post, but I get the main point you are trying to make. Since I have been around, I have seen some huge pendulum swings in an effort to make change. That is not inherently good or bad, but regardless large changes will have a large impact. Sometimes the impact of those changes are not seen for months (or even years) down the road.
I completely agree that Steem will move away from being a reward for content creation. I would not have realized that when I first joined, but definitely see it now. Looks like I get to be an investor.
If the inflation rate was cut, pretty much anyone with some Steem could be considered an investor. would be interesting to see how many would sell as price rose as they might not realise it could keep rising and might not think about how hard it is to earn again.
