I don't care about miners being profitable. I care about the cost of attacking the Bitcoin network.
If the block reward (fees + subsidy) grows slower than the market cap of btc a hypothetical double spend becomes more profitable.
However I doubt JPEG storage will help much in the long run. The only way I see the security budget working out long term is massive second layer settlement. And "arbitrary" data storage might help with that.
