That case would be stronger when there is no more subsidy, but we
collectively the uses of Bitcoin are currently paying miners around
$130k USD per block in the form of inflation for the job of honestly
complying with the Bitcoin protocol.

coinbase outputs when they do; which would be the sort of retaliation
they might get targeted with.
