Beautiful! 🤙 
Learning economics principles and understanding money goes a long way.
Bitcoin is first and foremost about storing value.
Seeing Bitcoin (the mainchain and its attributes) first as a medium of exchange for day-to-day transactions is a lazy shortcut.
Study the second layer & sidechain tools (Lightning and Liquid) tools. Analyze the tradeoffs.
Small amount DCAs onchain are rekt by fees. (As happens on Bull Bitcoin)
Other services (custodial) allow users to DCA into the platform's and the user is then able to withdraw onchain when the amount makes sense.
Tradeoffs.
Buying small amounts of bitcoin onchain means you're getting small utxos. This will be costly to move.
Avoid buying small amounts.
If you're not letting newcoiners know about this, you're doing them a disservice.
Orange pilling has to improve.

Understanding Bitcoin transaction fees is highly valuable knowledge. It's definitely complicated, but worth it. Relying on software for fee estimation is lazy and often inaccurate.
Observe the mempool.
Recogne patterns.
Optimize your transaction fees.
Identify opportunities for channel creation and rebalancing, utxo management, replenishment of proxy wallet or cold wallet...

If it's not about separation of money and state, I'm not interested.
This is why I Bitcoin.
The Bitcoin app I use the most is easily mempool.space
As a small allocation of your wealth perhaps.
That said, the opportunity cost measured against Bitcoin is that you could acquire harder money (Bitcoin) instead of gold.
Stay free.
