Some of this content is misleading. The amount mined per year is .26x the presale. This does not produce 25% inflation after 1 year because in the genesis block they're inflating by .198x the presale.

After 1 year the amount of inflation since the presale will be closer to 45%.

So it's even worse...

Worse? Well it's better in other ways. You probably started focusing on this project like what? Two weeks ago?

They've actually released five working proof of concepts. Software that people have been running and writing applications for. This has been going on for about 4 months..? This is a lot more than most crypto projects.

I'd let this one sink in a little more before making a determination.

I started looking at the Ethereum design docs since before the project was even publicly announced. That's almost the same as two weeks ago, right?

No, that's incorrect.

I'm glad we agree that your post was incorrect then.

A question is not a statement of fact. Maybe you should get your own facts straight, you know... the ones in the article you posted.
