With fiat money, this is not a problem, because that's only one of the available parameters to determine the relative value of a currency. Also, inflation constantly pushes fiat currency value towards zero, so your stashed 1970 dollars are now worth much less. Bitcoin, being deflationary in nature and not linked to anything, is a different ballgame.
