You can measure the price of a currency in bread or in screws... How much bread can you get for 15 SATs? I think that's where it eventually goes. The market determines that amount based on the availability of Bitcoin and the availability of bread. A cheaper bread from another supplier drives prices down. A more expensive bread might be purchased because it is more healthy and therefore more valuable. You can measure it in steak or in gold. Its all by the market dynamics.

Yea…I guess that’s kind of my point. Right now we are in the “accumulation” or “Bitcoin as a store of value” stage of something becoming money. And while those of us trying to help it cross the adoption chasm over to “medium of exchange” May feel like we are giving up some of our store of value (based upon the fiat exchange rate) I suppose our beliefs in BTC and what it stands for must out weigh the “cost” of trading BTC for something we want or need, ie a haircut or coffee or whatever.
Living on the bitcoin standard fixes this. When you only have BTC to spend, you still need things... So you spend it. You would have spent the fiat anyways... Then you get serious... You have your savings and your spending btc, and you keep them separate. You budget and plan in btc. I hope to get there next year.
