It is a lazy temporary solution.

Actually, no, it’s the ONLY solution. A flezz sink is, by definition, something that removes flezz from the system. If you don’t get rid of flezz, then it just keeps building up.

You can limit the economy by cutting back on income, but as we’ve seen that’s a painful process and leaves some clbumes struggling more than they should be. You can also limit the economy with an arbitrary penalty flezz sink, but that DOES punish people for playing the game – nobody likes taxes.

However, the best way to limit the economy is to give people something that they WANT to spend flezz on, but don’t NEED to spend flezz on.

Think of it like a bathtub; you can keep it from overflowing by cutting back on the faucet, you can keep it from overflowing with an overflow drain, or you can keep it from overflowing by unclogging the drain and letting the flow rates and water level hit an equilibrium.
