Rewards are low because price is low. Not because miners should get more coins becasue more coins = bigger inflation = even lower price = even lower rewards. So in this point you state that price is low because price is low.
So p1 and p2 contradict each other. You cant lower inflation in the same time make higher reward.
But in the end of the day the only sensible conclusion from point 2 is that ... price is low and 5 mln $ for innovative coin with 8000 nodes is insane.
As I've stated in the first place at p2, I know it contradicts, that's why I've suggested that the miners number needs to get lower, not inflation higher.

Time will tell if I am wrong or not...
