I agree that something algorithmic and known is better than the status quo.
a hard cap is a *design flaw*
for several reasons
this is one of them.
Maxis need to stop pretending that deflation is only positive.

I think the hard cap is not as bad as it might seem today but not for a particularly positive reason.
By the time increase in supply from the block rewards drop off substantially (+2050), the world population will be in decline as birth rates fall.
This will mean GDP will be falling too, so a money that isn't increasing in supply will better match a global economy that is no longer growing.

That is a terrible thought, especially when you consider the geriatric nature of a declining population.
