The block reward dropping doesn't mean that the value of the block reward drops though, does it? If the value of bitcoin goes up then the value of the block reward can increase even though the amount of bitcoin in the reward decreases.

The block reward consists of two parts, the ever-halving block subsidy, and the transaction fees.
