Yea, it would be a bit like conflating the nominal value of currency in circulation and the actual value to society of having physical currency at all. There are huge multiplier effects.

I used some coins today. It was probably the first time in a year I used cash...

While I see the value of failsafe money (except it really isn't) I think the returns are diminishing...
