The PoW security of Bitcoin benefits all Bitcoin users, proportional to the
value of BTC they hold; if Bitcoin blocks aren't reliably created the value=
 of
*all* BTC goes down. It doesn't make sense for the entire cost of that secu=
rity
to be paid for on a per-tx basis. And there's a high chance paying for it o=
n a
per-tx basis won't work anyway due to lack of consistent demand.

It would be extremely unfortunate if one of the very few decentralized ways=
 to
store value died simply because we couldn't find a way to pay to keep it
secure.
