Does Kaspa’s smooth emission schedule remove the narrative catalyst that Bitcoin’s halving created?

I’ve been thinking about something related to the smooth emission design of Kaspa compared with Bitcoin. Bitcoin’s halving every four years seems to have created a predictable event that brings massive attention to the network, and historically the market cycles have lined up roughly with those halvings. It seems like Bitcoin had a lot of "built in" marketing around it to compensate for the lack of VC backing/endorsement (21 million, anonymous creator, 4 year halving, etc)... I guess the obvious argument would be that the market will recognize value, and liquidity will follow, but is this a valid concern?
