im really missing where this can gain value. Why would anyone pay over .001 if that is where the price is constantly set?

Ultra short is that 0.001 supply is limited, once it's gone it's gone. Additionally once a week the supply is cut for a day, Insanity Sunday, where all BTC from purchases goes back in to market, see the results of yesterday's here:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=471166.msg5323853#msg5323853The after 9 weeks model is something that remains to be seen, but it could easily move to a different core model where there was a tiny block reward, or tx fee cut or increase, or at week 5 we could decide as a community to start raising supply cost, or wipe out 25% of the supply, or, or.. for now let's keep the current set up and see what happens.
I vote for destroying half of the supply and cutting it to 4/5 weeks. In crypto, 9 weeks is way too long and no body is holding long term to see what happens in 9 weeks so you can expect everyone to want out each sunday. If there were only 4 weeks left one might consider it, improving insanity sundays and building a base of people who don't just want some quick profit.
