Fortunately, no one is forcing anyone to adopt Bitcoin, if the features are undesirable.
> Deflationary currencies are dangerous. Inflation is a feature, not a bug.
You may be right, but we can't stop a community from choosing something deflationary as their preferred currency.
> I can have those transactions reversed. No such luck with Bitcoin
I'd argue this is a feature in Bitcoin for many people.
> I can’t remember the last time my bank got DoSed.
You're fortunate. Last time I went to a bank (right after COVID hit), I was denied cash withdrawals due to liquidity issues. That's what happens when your money is in custody of someone else. Once you look outside first world countries, you'll see the demerits of centralised systems handling critical resources like money.
> Bitcoin’s value fluctuates wildly, making it a poor medium of exchange.
I'll agree with this point. Perhaps it's because of the nature of the market itself. Bitcoin trades globally, 24x7 and 365 days a year, without circuit breakers when there's extreme volatility. It's not appropriate for buying candies from a store, but maybe a good option for a Tesla?
> I like that my country can adjust monetary policy in response to world events like pandemics.
On the contrary, people holding Bitcoin during the pandemic were relatively well off in 2020. The stimulus package had negative impacts too, like asset inflation. But more concretely, Bitcoin is the first true alternative to central banking, and many people are happy to adopt it because it solves important problems for them.
