Emissions is a bad idea. Here's why:
Awareness increases linearly with price and technological friction falls. This will lead to smaller amounts of lost BTC over the x-axis. We have multisig, inheritance schemes, miniscript, etc inbound too.
Also 100 years in the future, a computer with enough qubit strength to run Schor's Algorithm means ancient coins get found if there's no fork of the protocol. Thusly, emissions=inflation.
Peter Todd is wrong. @Darthcoin, do you care to chime in?

If a quantum computer can find ancient coins, it can find your coins too.

That assumes mine are not protected by quantum resistant cryptography, and that backwards compatibility of the states nodes checkpoint to still exists.
