Deflation benefits the rich. They have lots of money that gets to appreciate. You're just turning money into housing or Bitcoin. Something the rich speculate with to the detriment of the less wealthy.

No, they don't have lots of money, they have lots of assets. No one is sitting around with a silo full of doll-hairs they go swimming in like a greedy duck. And with deflation, those assets become cheaper. Inflation they become more expensive. The exact opposite of wages.
