By nature, Byteball doesn't need any mining actually, the reward given to WCG contributors is a way among others to spread bytes to maximum people to create network effect. When initial distribution will be over, this will have to stop.
Then there won't be inflation anymore for Byteball while GRC will continue to have an increasing supply. So from a strict economical point of view, I'm not sure that GRC having a better reward system is a good argument in favor for its future price.
But of course, scarcity is not the only factor that determines the price so it's hard to predict which is the better horse.

Inflation is not bad, it can be good or bad. Deflation is not good, it can be bad or good. Value is not price, price follows value.
Since you're talking about the network effect here, let's use that as an example. Something that is deflationary is probably going to have a decreasing network effect over time. Those in the beginning get a lot of a it, this in the middle get some of it, those at the end get little or none of it. Some sort of distribution mechanism (which deflation does not encourage) or inflation would be required to maintain the network effect moving forward, yes?
