OP, I believe the "drama" will start after two halvings. There will be some "influencial" people from the community who will start a "campaign" for a hard fork to change the reward schedule, but without inflating the supply.
There's already support for divding 1 BTC into smaller fractions in a hard fork. That's the end of it really, instead of mining new coins ending in the year 2140 (as things are now), mining will stop in the year 2200 or something like that
Why do you want to promote drama that doesn't even exist?
Plus who's promoting? I'm ridiculing. Unless it's a bug or something that threatens impending doom for Bitcoin, a hard fork will never get consensus.
because LN is a separate network. and BITCOIN was changed to meet LN needs(not the other way round) the same group that instigated hardforks using consensus bypasses in 2017 to make bitcoin LN compatible. will do the same thing again to make the bitcoin units of account more appear to be the same as LN's pegged tokens. to attempt to hide that LN is pegged tokens

with 8 decimals the year 2140~ is the year mining rewards cant be divided. but adding 1000 subunits means that bitcoin can have many more 'bitcoin halving' events beyond 2140
eg 1000, 500,250,125 which is 4 extra NON-Rounded halvings which is 16 years of more units of account bing added to circulation
what you also have to realise is that at code/PROTOCOL level units of account are measured in satoshi's. so messing with the units of account do actually matter. once you look beyond the propaganda hype and buzzwords of human drama and the user interface and look at the code you will realise that the units of account changing from
~2,100,000,000,000,000
~2,100,000,000,000,000,000 matters
yes some people will buzzword it that its still going to be 21m 'bitcoins' . but the reality is a 'bitcoin' is a basket term for 100,000,000 satoshis
much like saying a banana pallet is 1000 banana's. and then saying there are only ever 100 pallets in a truck. yet by adding 10 banana's per pallet and still trying to say there are only 100 pallets, does not hide the fact that there are now 1000 extra banana's that can be shared around
