Too bad, too sad bitcoin reward schedule was made by some apes apparently.

Bitcoin like: "we are groundbreaking new tech in moneytoken but you can't use it before 2028 because that's how long distribution will take"

Man, i don't get my head around how people can create this technology and then screw up the economic part like that. Some real apes.

I think that is exactly what is good about it. If it takes so long, it will get spread out a lot. The seigniorage will be everywhere and nowhere.

Bitcoin is not going to become a main currency (if ever) before several decades in any case, so just as well take that time to distribute it. Bitcoin is a century-long project. As fiat money has been.
