Nice thinking. We need more of this. I did ask adam back about the long term incentives of bitcoin. And he said fees might be the incentives, but, "we have a long time to think about it". I think you are right about 8-12 years. The reward will be under 0.5 btc per block then. I wonder what will happen to all the hashing equipment in that time. It is wise to be thinking ahead.
