This is certainly a correct and logical thought, but I also think it is not exactly the same thing. Gold comes from an "ancient" era, I like many others was born in a fiat era and I know it, yes, I know them too and appreciate it as a store of value, but as you rightly noted I do not use it as such. Bitcoin does not do the same thing as gold, gold does not try to overturn the entire financial system, Bitcoin does, I am not interested in living a life in a system that I do not like, that I do not approve of in order to accumulate gold and retire "rich"! But I prefer to live a "poor" life by having and using Bitcoin and trying to change something. Maybe it will not change anything, maybe it will, but in any case this thought makes me act in a direction, which gold does not do... so I do not know, maybe you are right, but maybe not entirely.
