I’ve heard this idea In #permaculture that its principles make gardening/agriculture easier over time, as you age, which is desirable and natural (relying more on perennials/improving the soil). And traditional agriculture makes things harder over time (relying on debt, degrading the soil, always requiring external inputs).
It seems very analogous to deflationary money #bitcoin compared to fiat money. Saving in one makes life simpler and easier over time, as it always appreciates, vs the other making life harder and more complicated over time, as you’re constantly struggling to outpace inflation.
