we could most likely assume that anyone holding a BTC Wallet at that time (if showing no activity for say 50-60 years) is probably lost, and there therefore (IMO be reclaimed) after a alert to the wallet hodler.

maybe i am going to have a newborn child tomorrow and i want to put aside 1BTC in a  cold storage for his retirement when he is 60. who gives you the authority to judge these coins as lost?

You can not assume a finite currency will survive more than several centuries, if for not other reason it will get lost. Especially with one so finite and complex as BTC.

why not? you don't have to worry about some possible problem in a future that isn't even in your lifetime.
