The comparison overlooks that gold's price is volatile, driven by speculation, not pure inflation—today's ~$3360/oz reflects demand spikes, not a stable benchmark. Under a sustained gold standard, money supply rigidity could stifle growth, causing deflation and recessions (e.g., Great Depression). Real wages rose via productivity/tech, not gold ties; fiat enables flexible policy for stability. Not as "peachy" due to economic inflexibility.
