It’s the politics. If the core team decided to change the parameters of bitcoin at worst everyone would fall in line and at best it’d fork and you’d lose a whole lot of value.

It’d be a fork either way and that’s the point. Still no trust involved.

Please do, because until you actually try you will remain very confused about what is scarcity in context of bitcoin.
