Why is it 100b tokens? Why not have it be 1b tokens so the token price is somewhat legible as it heads towards $1b fdv?

1B is the ideal token supply imo 

There's a case to be made for 10B or 100B too though

A lot of people like owning more of something, hence why projects launch with higher total token supply. 

But I agree with you, I prefer 1 billion token supply for that legibility.

Lots of ppl love trying to “get the token to $1”, and once it’s there, it gives me the feeling that the token is more real, which provides the rationale for it to grow even more

in order to entice the primordial desire to own more of something

It's strategic: starting with a larger supply can promote liquidity and accessibility, appealing to broader investor demographics before optimizing value as the project matures.
