I understanding this perfectly well. Every bailout was monetized in this way. Nobody paid a special assessment on the tax form called "bailout". Doesn't change the fact that they will be paying and this is happening again. All you are saying is that it is not only literally taxpayers who pay but also everyone who holds US dollars.

Now what did that pedantry get this conversation?

You're being pedantic, and you didn't read my bullet points, because the money literally disappears. It doesn't get "paid" by anyone.
