That is true and that element would still be there. We still would have no "fee" (directly anyway) for engaging with the blockchain. It would still be fee-less. However, there are certain activities where there is a fee. This is not for posting, commenting, or upvoting; nor for sending money to another.
However, if you want to utilize certain features, then there could be a fee for that.
Semantics? Maybe. But I think we are not changing one of the selling points to Hive. In my view it would still be feeless to transact with the chain.
But certainly worthy of discussion.
