length is a measure of distance. the base unit of length is the metre. as you can imagine it is pretty important that the metre stays always the same length
how do you measure value?
we use money to measure value and compare prices. the problem of todays money is, that the length (read volume) isn’t always the same, it gets bigger and bigger over time (called inflation)
this is the most simple reasoning for why we need a fixed money supply
the deflation spiral counter argument is bullshit. people will always consume
