Yes, but only because those ideas have the best probabilities to 
generate more money.

You're still stuck in a currency based thinking. It's like your 
imagination only stretches so far as to remove the dollar from the world 
market, and then argue about how difficult it would be for US people to 
just use foreign currency. (Note, that was an analogy.)

Everyone won't have any problems making economic decisions because 
nobody will need to make any.

And of course I realize that this is an extremely far fetched utopia I'm 
talking about. I'm just thinking about how a really high-Q MoQ society 
would look like.
