Most people generally think of Bitcoin as an "investment for profit". Again

Yes that is what Bitcoin is, there are different value that Bitcoin holds, investment, store of value or currency for payment. Among all the value accompanying Bitcoin, higher percentage of people are interested in making profits from Bitcoin, once it becomes about the profits it is no longer savings, savings are meant to be stacked somewhere with less risk (volatility). If not that Bitcoin generates profits, i bet there will be less people interested in Bitcoin.

Profits could be savings. Meaning, lets say that you earn dollars, and you put some aside, you have 1000 dollars today, then dollar loses 10% value, but you have 1100 dollars worth, that means, you didn't actually profited, but you saved, and kept the store of value, and that means, you look like you are in the green, but in reality not.

If something like that happens, then profit equals to savings and that's still a great thing. Obviously we want more, and we would be sad with less, but if we get this, we would be neither happy nor sad about it. Too many people reacting to this like it's a big deal, but the reality is simple, we need to see this becoming a good thing for us to move forward with. If we can do that, then we are going to benefit for sure.
