tail emission doesn't necessarily mean changing the real suppy except up and down a bit to make a smooth curve in the 4 year cycle but it's stupid anyway. the tail is 2140. by then the precision will be at least 128 bits and there will be a whole 300 years more of fractional sats

Right, but even if tail emission were to be a thing it CANNOT make a smooth curve for any good outcomes. Even in an idealistic scenario it doesn't work because it messes up the entire free market structure and misallocates capital. The best supply issuance curve is the one we have right now, the Satoshi created, it's working perfectly fine. I don't think humans of today can make it better, not in a million years. The only people who want to change it are people who want free money they don't work for in expense of everyone else.
