You are a developer and mathematician, so should be happy enough to convert money to various forms of capital, and energy, they are all exchangeable for one another, I hope you agree.

Bitcoin, which takes lots of energy to compute, is being exchanged for ever increasing amounts of fiat, so we have to accept it also has value. When we look closely at the Bitcoin mining business model, we see that the best case for winning, is to have maximum computing power, for minimum outlay, including the energy to drive it. Solar turns out to have the best business case, because with that generating a few Bitcoin, those can be exchanged for fiat, and that fiat then plowed back into expanding the solar infrastructure driving the mining plant, to generate yet more Bitcoin.

So there we see monetisation of sunlight.

That explains why fiat money issued as stimulus now goes up in value, not down.

Value is being pumped into the economy by that process of sunlight monetisation.

So things are different now than ever before.

Now we have free money being generated from sunlight, and it doesn't do any harm at all, in fact it fixes a lot of things. Even the problem of our planet starting to burn from always using the energy within it, rather than the energy coming to it from the sun.

So we should really have no problem at all understanding why freely printing money is a good thing. It is a necessity, to fix all the problems, I would say. I don't even see this as any kind of argument, it is an observation. We only need to look to see it.
