If we have the premise that the value trends are the same, we cannot then say "but people will prefer one over the other" That the value trends are the same is an indication of equal preference.
Even if I agreed with you entirely, it's politically unfeasible to put bitcoin into a box, even one so ideal. I think your vision is highly feasible, and likely to play out initially. I don't think that means ideal money is the end game. It could be ideal money + more.

Nono. YOU need consensus for change. Social entropy grows. Bitcoin gets harder to change as it grows, this is especially so as people of Nash's proposal.

You don't need to change bitcoin to build on top of bitcoin. You can send compute through BTC Txs today. An innovation can grow atop bitcoin that enhances the value of bitcoin. Use of that innov could break value trends with fiat, and bias to BTC as further dominant asset.

If I can build a distributed computation system on top of bitcoin now, you can't stop me without changing your protocols. Harder to change btc to prevent greater use case than money, than to change btc to enable greater uses.

Better said, if can build greater use on current bitcoin, it'll be hard to fork me off, just as you argued it'd be hard to fork new capacity/protocols on. I say harder even.
