I don't know much about inflation on other chains. Obviously bitcoin's inflation is much lower and getting lower with each halfing, until it reaches zero.
But how about the bulk of chains you mentioned that are around 5% inflation annually? Is their inflation gradually going down, or in some cases it's fixed at that level? Because if in some cases it's fixed, there's a completely different scenario on the long term.
In principle, I would be ok with switching some portions of the inflation from the base token to a SMT. But after a while from the introduction of SMTs, at least one hard fork apart, after we see SMTs in action for some time.

I have written about the specifics of the top coins inflation here:

For some of the coins the inflation goes down in time, especially the PoW coins, like BTC, ETH, LTC...
For others its unclear....
