Demurrage is good for miners. Inflationary for non-miners. Overall, not necessary IMO.
Degens can already speculate on individual sats such that their perceived value of a sat exceeds one satoshi. Its a roundabout and "opt-in" way to "recover" extra value from the BTC tokens already in circulation.
Degeneracy on BTC is good/neutral for the degens. Bad for those who get scammed by degens. Not inflationary for non-degens who don't respect the recovered value.
Degens will degen whether demurrage exists or not.

How can demurrage be inflationary for non miners if the total supply stays the same?

the same reason if satoshi or saylor sold his coins would be inflationary. total supply !== circulating supply
