"If you could basically take Bitcoin, and if it ran 10 times faster, and it had $5T on it, and people with more money than the Bitcoiners were using that thing, then I would probably throw in the towel, sell Bitcoin, and buy that thing."

Let's chat in 2 years @michael_saylor :)
Defi on Ethereum is at ~$27B total value locked and growing ~10x per year—see https://defipulse.com 
Also ETH will likely be ultrasound money in two years. We have ~5K ETH/day in transaction fees, most of these fees will be burnt, and this will more than compensate for PoS issuance.
Thermodynamically, ETH will long-term be the superior asset.

Focusing on the engineering, BTC issuance going to zero jeopardises the security foundations. Not to mention quantum attacks such as a Shor attack on EcDSA and Schnorr signatures, as well as Grover attacks on PoW.
As the top-of-your-year MIT engineer I know you appreciate long-term fundamentals @michael_saylor, and that short term dynamics are noise.

I spent ~30 minutes talking about long-term BTC fundamentals here More than happy to chat about this further :)
