I guess? but considering all the big dick companies and gov'ts are accumulating and hoarding most of the btc, maybe having more btc available could allow more average folks to jump into the market? Plus after all, bitcoin was meant to be 21 million, not 21 million, but X amount is missing! sadge.
That's the unique protocol of Bitcoin, it can be changed.
As of now, it's 19,632,318 total circulating supply in the Coin market cap, so there's no fixed total amount of Bitcoin.
If the Bitcoin protocol changed, then that consensus doesn't belong to Bitcoin anymore.

Less total circulating supply of Bitcoin becomes higher the price which an already said on early reply, think about as donation for those who've lost their Bitcoin and unrecoverable.
