+/- 0.1% over a year isn’t meaningful here. I understand that you’re unwilling to reconsider your beliefs when they are based on faulty math and thus don’t reflect the underlying reality here.

A plumber, doctor, teacher, cook, etc does work before getting paid and the company rarely needs to wait 365 days for someone to pay them for that work. This means your idea is inherently flawed, there’s no broader point when you’re making a mistake.

Further future revenue is generally inflation adjusted. If you borrow 1B to build a power plant you sell electricity at future prices not what electricity was worth when you started building. When the reverse happens say at collages when they get paid months before professors get paid, the school isn’t increasing salaries every month to keep up with inflation.
