That feels like a redefinition or at least like a huge asterisk is being added. If you need a term to mean “only the basics are covered” you could do better. Post scarcity naturally implies no limits even if your semantics differ.

exactly, this is what i have issue with calling post-scarcity.

may be the term could be "universal basic income capable" (UBI-able).
