Then it won't be "free" anymore, more like "rented" or "borrowed".
Don't really see how that would change much, the amount is so low that the volumes at a later time will eat it up without caring too much about it, I believe. But I understand your view that it would be a way to hold back some SP from the markets, but users don't like having been lied to about the free SP.

Sort:  

What if it was just called "free influence," without any promise to actually allow it to be withdrawn? I think that would effectively take care of any false hopes.

That would be a good way to word it. So long as people know what they are signing up for up front is what matters. I don't think it would deter anyone from signing up.

You make a good point, it's like the betting chip the pit bosses give you at a casino... you can bet with it and keep the reward but you can't just cash it out... pretty good analogy
