You're making inferences about his meaning and that is a much more interesting conversation, I agree. But it's just not what he said. He's pretty clear that "it has infinite supply" is an accurate assessment of the situation. Which is retarded. And also, monero's tail inflation DOES asymptotically *approach zero. It just never reaches it. Which is an extremely important difference, as you point out. We can talk about *why approaching but never actually reaching* zero is a better design if you like.
