No, not that either. Anyone can plant more Tulips. There's no way to dilute the supply of Bitcoin.

Planting tulips isn't an instant thing. It takes a season to grow. Not that different from mining? And not really part of the tulip thing; that was all about the bubble.

I mean, miners could agree on a different set of rules to apply and increase the supply.

It's harder/unlikely, but its not "no way to".

You're describing a fork. Bitcoin has already been forked uncountable times. They don't carry over the users, so they don't carry over the network effects either.
