I personally still think this is not the way to go, the easiness in which people accept changes to coin characteristics worries me.
Not trying to change your mind on this, I accept that not everyone is going to be comfortable with the changes and you are of course entitled to your viewpoints/feelings.
However just thought I would point out that this change is only being proposed because it is something we feel is very important to do right now, and because most of the people we have asked have agreed (and not because of the current price as some are saying but more for long term distribution and stability benefits)
It is not something that we would do on a whimsy, this has been an ongoing discussion internally for ages before we decided it was right, so this doesn't mean that now suddenly we will be wanting to change the amount of coins every few weeks.
Further ultimately the coin is open source, so if anyone ever goes completely crazy and does start making random changes that the entire community disagrees with then the community can always just stand up and fork the coin - so I don't think there is a massive danger of this setting some precedent or other, I am not a massive fan of changing things like this either, however sometimes changes are necessary no matter how scary on unnerving they can be.
