Arguably food price inflation has been like this. Clearly the market can withstand it if everyone moves together.
All this is not to say that taxes should never be increased of course.
Now there's a thought.

Plus the size of signatures can really add up depending on the number of files and algo.

Actually, the purpose of the nonce is for privacy. The inclusion proof necessarily contains a leaf node hash, but I didn't want the proof to expose the hash of files it wasn't proving. That's because it could be private information, such as "bob has sensitive file X downloaded".
Since this approach makes determinism impossible, I chose to ignore the goroutine determinism part you mention.
Storing the tree nodes would likely still be required however, since otherwise the system would be brittle against things like file content and name changes, deletion, etc.
Another use case might be an organization that has a large archive of important files. This tool allows them to efficiently sign all of these files by signing the root hash.
