It is good amount of Bitcoin only now. Back then, it was as worthless as claiming tBTC from faucets is today. Nobody imagined Bitcoin becomes this big. Otherwise, do you think some body would have given away 5 BTC so easily back then?
I know that Bitcoin did not have great value in 2010 but the faucet is from Gavin Andersen, a Bitcoin developer. I believe that he had good belief in future of Bitcoin but perhaps he did not imagine Bitcoin will have value like $60,000. His faucet is iconic part of Bitcoin history.
Imagine you think you can not claim too many Satoshis daily from Bitcoin faucets today and in one decade a Satoshi is worth $1.
I don't believe one satoshi will become $1 in next decade.
If it becomes $1 in 2033, the global economy will be in hell and I don't want to be part of it. Maybe 1 satoshi will be worth $1 in 2140 but I will no longer be alive in that year.
