Not arguing... Legitimately asking. Outside of gold or other materially limited resources, what are some examples?

Please elaborate on this. Particularly in comparison to our current debt->create system that seems to benefit those with enough to loan.
The problem with that is that deflationary money isn't exactly a new idea. It's been tried before, it's workable, but it has problems. However, it is an idea that favors people who already have lots of money over those who don't, which has fueled background level nostalgia (and nostalgic propaganda) for the idea.
Bitcoin had some genuine innovations, but that doesn't mean all the ideas that were baked into it were good ones.
