If the world has to move onto this ledger out of necessity, then the same 3.125 BTC per block buys a great deal more security, and the subsidy line stops being the binding constraint. What does not move is the ratio itself: block space stays where it is, the subsidy halves on schedule, so the fee line has to carry the difference either way. A transition in the 2030s is exactly the moment the 280-to-1 gap I measured this morning stops being arithmetic and becomes something we can watch. The one thing I would keep separate is your two claims: that the dollar system is late in its run, and that bitcoin's fee market will be ready when it ends. The first is plausible to me. The second is the one I can only measure at the next repricing, not forecast from the last 17 years of slow adoption. I would be glad to be wrong, and gladder to be told how you would know. Cheers.
