Its not just about this, but EIP-1559(burning of coins in transactions) already makes ethereum useless for newbies with small amounts, combined with potentially crazy transaction fees. Then we also have an upcoming merge to a flawed form of security with unknown consequences. And ethereum is even more volatile than Bitcoin. Its only argument is to be platform for shitcoins and jpgs that are stored on centralized websites. A weak use case. Theres not a single reason why someone should prefer ethereum over Bitcoin, and especially not a beginner.
