- I currently think an ideal cryptocurrency coin emission curve includes a tail emission.

You don't prolly don't need it with PoS combined. Tail emission doesn't provide enough security any way, so you've go to get a handle on the fee market issues. Thus the reason to want PoS control. But democracy is always a winner-take-all power vacuum.

-Proof of stake mining has a genuine penalty (coins locked up)

That is actually a good thing for making the price go up because the float is smaller. Dash's masternode scheme with allegedly compounding concentrating stake to Evan Inc is a perverse example.

It is one of the clever schemes everybody seems to want to copy now.

If you don't lockup your stake, you lose value as everyone else is earning an interest.
