What if I tell you that you can have more Bitcoin while you spend it daily and that you can verify this for yourself in just two months?

Yea if you buy more bitcoin than you spend then yes. Pretty simple.
Sure, but you’re overlooking the psychological impact of having no fiat and only Bitcoin to spend. You instantly become more disciplined and conscious about every purchase. I managed to cut around 30% of my emotional buys and things like junk food in just the first month, simply because I didn’t want to waste precious sats on garbage. As a result, my stack grew much faster. Not just because I was buying more than my usual DCA (normally 15–20% of my monthly wage), but also because I became more mindful of how I spent the rest.
This also creates a second-order effect on the economy and adoption. It’s a slower process and requires broader action to truly matter, but spending Bitcoin increases merchant adoption, which adds monetary demand on top of the existing demand for savings (SoV). That increased monetary demand eventually boosts Bitcoin’s purchasing power, NgO. So spending Bitcoin actually has more benefits than tradeoffs, and it’s rational economic behavior, not just ideological purity.
Most of us are paid in fiat and bills are fiat so to turn it into bitcoin just to pay it in fiat seems like extra steps and cost at no benefit to the user. If you’re paid in bitcoin that’s a different story.
I used to think the same until I tried it. Ironically the moment for me came when our government decided to put us in the Eurozone and to abandon the currency board system that has been keeping our debt to GDP in check for 30 years. So for me it makes much sense to not hold any fiat until the exact moment when I convert the bitcoin at the point of sale.
Fair enough glad it is working for you
