IMHO it's not a "flaw", it's a feature.
HIVE holders can decide where to allocate his fair share of inflation. In most if not all of the other chains added inflation goes to the stacker, which adds over time to centralization.
Here it's a bit of the opposite, HIVE tends to distribute over time. And this is a good time IMHO.
Inflation and Author rewards are not that much anyway.
