Your proposal is what POS offers, BTC already rewarding miners and that is strong enough economic value. The best way to benefit from bitcoin and accumulate more if you're not a miner, is to buy low and sell high and repeat same with the hope you won't get caught by the market.
Thats the point, the price could drop in any investment, it is up to you to profit from it or be upset about it. If you are simply just upset because the price dropped, then you are going to do nothing and you are not going to benefit from it, crying over the price and deflation (which is none if you ask me) is not going to solve any of your problems and would just be empty whining.
However, if you buy more when the price drops that means you are going to end up with some profit and that is the way you could get out of this with less harm done to you and more profit chances when the time comes. Thats the only beneficial method during any of the bear markets that we have faced so far.
