Inflation in not a transaction fee. At most you could call inflation a cost. You sound like you're just playing with words.

I said as much. Inflation is a holding cost. Ultimately, all costs matter, whether for holding or for transacting.
You didn't say as much. You said inflation is a fee; inflation is not a fee.
Inflation is 100% in effect a fee on holding.

As the saying goes, if it quacks/walks/acts like a duck, you can decorate it with all the lies you want; it is a duck.
