How do 7 and 4 work together?

If the reward for staking is fixe at 5%, what keeps the issuance rate from being net positive?

The staking reward is for collateralized validators only (a small % of the network)

Overall issuance can potentially be negative due to the burn effects of eip1559 - where the base transaction fee of an eth transaction is deleted from the network forever (akin to using oil/gas/petrol & then it's gone)

If 2>1 then net issuance is negative

"cool" maybe, but completely uninformative.

Ok, I see that you're now just making repeated negative comments towards me.

It is your opinion that it in uninformative, for you, but for myself and many others, it is quite informative.

Exactly, it's my opinion. What's wrong with sharing my opinion? The whole purpose of this site is sharing opinions and points of view with others. Do you think I'm looking for comments written by you and posting "negative" replies? You're crazy.
