Monero's tail emission provides a permanent floor to miner revenue in #XMR terms, while its inflation rate continuously declines. If demand and price rise, the real security budget can grow even as the monetary cost of tail emission becomes progressively smaller relative to the network.

Fiat is what others charge for shit we need. Good luck changing that. Convert the shit out of the entirety of the supply chain involved in the securing of the network.
Infinite fiat is only a thing in a closed box. They need you in that box. As soon as you leave the box pricing fiat becomes a funny experiment. Bitcoin was that experiment. Monero is that experiment.

Qubic was a state attack (or at least a MVP). It's quite obvious for those who study those attacks on Bitcoin and Monero.

As soon as it failed the intel community pivoted to pumping Zcash.

Security budget on Monero growth YOY also thanks to tail emission. The same was true for a long time in Bitcoin, but the fee market introduces uncertainties down the road.
