I’m not making any point at all, besides trying to clarify the math and terminology GP used. I know very little about economics :)
Like if someone found a trillion long tons of pure gold somewhere, but decided not to sell it or even use it. The price of gold isn't just going to collapse overnight. Sure the markets will panic sell for a few days, but it's still a real commodity with real uses & demands.
Putting a ton more _active_ money in the system does change the value of money.
