Total number of coins to ever be minted? Why is that more helpful than the standard market cap calculation?

It tells us the real picture. I don't know about you but I always compare coins using that metric alone.

Would I be right in thinking that the marketcap (used in the context of cryptocurrencies) is a bit of a fiction? For the majority of coins, there simply isn't the liquidity at the current price?

(I'm a bit of a novice in these matters... so apologies if the answer to this is obvious).
