I actually do understand that it isn't "free." But the "costs" are minimal, unless the price is tanking...but then this is not caused by SBDs. The falling prices are the catalyst for the potential "systemic risks." Eliminating SBDs does not resolve the actual problems that cause the falling STEEM prices.
SBD is constant selling pressure because of interest cost and feed discount cost.
With steem's low trading volume, That could cause enough problem.
Sure...right now. The problem isn't SBDs. The problem is the wholesale lack of interest in STEEM/Steemit. You're confusing/dismissing the actual causes of the STEEM price declines.
There are many causes of STEEM price declines, and SBD is one factor of it. Again, IT is CONSTANT selling pressure.
Again, what benefit SBD brings to STEEM? It brings selling pressure. It MAY BENEFIT MERCHANT but only do harm to STEEM.
