Suspending fees would not be a good move. The whole motive of #satoshi_nakamoto was probably to:
replace the standard reward (supposed for the genesis when amount didnt really matter) gradually with
a #miners income that will always fit okay in general, because the fee market determines the rate.
This is also why the #blocksize should not have been increased, even 4 mb is too much. It messes up the design, which was "replace the standard reward as fast as possible with a market determined PoW reward based on demand, AKA the feemarket."
Atleast that is the coïncidental good outcome that probably was not coïncidental.
