Isn't this confusing what you choose to do (I also won't pay that much, but that's irrelevant) with economic reality? If Ferrari halved their prices, that would be incredible, but I still wouldn't buy one.

One cause of inflation is when there's a load of money borrowed and spent by government, e.g. on pandemic response, or an overseas war (which also raises prices through, say the price of fuel) and so the basic levers of the economy are pulled by said government to make interest rates higher, which inflates currency. So the exact same good produced in the same way will be more expensive (in amount of money paid).

In that case is it not childish to say that prices just "should come down", if we can't say why they should? Isn't it a good thing when companies give you a massively better product and also beat the inflation from government?
