Well, You may have your own opinion and views towards the creation of Bitcoin. Personally, I believe that satoshi had learned from the last market crash and it was really made for the hedge against inflation. Why 21 Million? The only satoshi could give the answer to this exact number but the motto seems obvious that there a need for an asset for the store of value. If you love money printing then I don't think I have anything to say otherwise, Yes Satoshi is a genius and Bitcoin is a superior asset.
Talking about security at an extreme cost, I think you should read how much government spends to store gold? The expense spent by banks for their security and ATM is just a few examples of them.
Slow-paced development? Really? If you think so please submit your proposal and try to do the same thing in the bank you are using right now.
And, Bitcoin can't scale is the funniest thing I have ever heard. For your sake of information, Bitcoin Lighting network is not using a entirely different chain. The final transactions is recorded after the channel is closed in the Main Blockchain so considering it as different Bitcoin is insane.

If you think Bitcoin is faulty and an inferior asset class, You can start your own own Blockchain project with the features you like. What is stopping you?
