You can only burn a little since:
1.)If you burn too much the whole pricing and ordering mechanism for operations does not work any more. Burning is only going to lead to big players in mining/staking and consumers making direct side arrangements.
2.) There is less incentive to stake since burning benefits all regardless if you stake or not. Its essentially a stock buyback. But sure you still have the inflationary block generation as rewards.

"But sure you still have the inflationary block generation as rewards."
To be more precise: You are still penalized by dilution/inflation if you dont stake.
To add to this, the overall issuance of ETH yearly is going to reduce from about ~ 4+ Million ETH in the PoW model to about ~ 1.x Million ETH in the PoS model, because the PoS security does not require as much issuance.
