Greetings, with all due respect I'll toss around a different opinion.
HIVE is a PoS blockchain, as that's how consensus is achieved.
Inflation is distributed through a proof of brain mechanic. I think HIVE should drop blogging entirely as its holding the chain back. Let 2nd parties do it instead, we've already seen that a group like Peakd can do blogging better. The core product is not and should not be a 5 year old blogging MVP! It's the fast and scalable chain that's a destination to build Dapps on.
I think HIVE should be a deflationary governance token, not a rewards token at all. Focus on building and maintaining a great blockchain to build on. Let Dapps build 2nd layer products with native tokens.

Yes fair point, I mean the rewards can be distributed anyway those with Hive Power choose, I wouldn't vote against a radical cut in the deflation.
It's not something I'm necessarily against now we've proved we can build blogging dapps on top with custom tokens - I'd just rather they were properly decentralised first in terms of their distribution!
