Why would it be unfair to give people ''the chance to reward themselves in an other way than mining'' if we have thereafter a better distribution?
How would that be a better distribution? Few folks who saw themselves as the kings of the treasure hunt become billionaires. Their keys will be demanded from Faketoshis like Wright, who'll then pretend to be Satoshi with evidence. How does that sound to you?

The question was: Is it possible, that Satoshi used precalculated addresses and not random addresses? (And this was an honest question.)

If so, then someone will find the path to one address and move the coins. Then we will know that this was Satoshi's intention. Because, if they chose random addresses, it wouldn't be possible to move them. Thereafter others will follow and move coins. Some will publish the private keys and how they did it. Some of them would ''pretend to be Satoshi with evidence'', but we knew, that anybody could have the private keys. And nobody would be able to get the private keys to all addresses at once, so we hadn't billionaires. There would be competition.

That sounds good to me, very good. And very fair, Satoshi like.
