That's hyperinflation, a 6yo could understand that you can't just keep printing money. But if you got 10m at 4 sats and stake high, you're still in the profit zone when you sell for 4 sats again. Unfortunately, everybody who got in at higher prices with less coins is rekt, unless he buys much more now. It's a bit of a pyramid scheme and not really sustainable long term, not sure if the reward reduction on Nov 1st is going to fix that. The main problem is that the sole purpose of the coin seems to be staking, at least there's no other use case I see. I doubt anybody would use it in real world applications.
tl;dr if you got in early, you're sitting in such a tremendous amount of EMB now that you probably won't even care if it drops to 1-2 sats. If you got in later, bad luck.

Wrong. There is a limit of 850 million EMB, so a hyperinflation will not happen. And this is the difference between EMB and fiat.

Well, if total circulating supply is reached (and it is according to coinmarketcap.com), and if they're still paying out stake rewards, then something's not adding up.
You can call it hyperinflation, or something else, but something's fishy.
