Why stop at 32 halving when we can just continue with microsat? It wont exceed 21mn BTC that way either right?

You're right, let's remove BIP-42 :'D

Just kidding eh

Oh I don't know about BIP-42. Just checked it out.

So it's due to that we have to stop at 32 halving ya?

I thought it would make more sense if miner get 0.5 Satoshi on the 33rd halving.

But now it seems clear to me that even if that was the original intention by Satoshi Nakamoto, it isn't possible due to C++ limitation right?

CMIIW I'm not a coder

Because the block reward is a subsidy, its there to juice hashrate up until fees can take over, but ideally there isn't this source of new money distorting price signals.
