Their maths dont add up.
0.1 bars per block.
1 block per minute.
1440 blocks per day.
525600 blocks per year
52560 bars per year.
3.5 premine = 3360000 bars.
it will take 63.92 years before the public has accumulated as many bars as the premine. Giving away 0.5% to 1.0% of the premine will not bring this into an acceptable range either imho.
