Ok and little league and MLB are technically the same sport but 8 year old Billie Jr isn't going to be throwing a no hitter at Fenway any time soon.
Technically being the same thing does not mean it will function the same way.
Perfect is the enemy of good in this case. I would much rather have a $100 UBI just to test out the system than have no UBI ever happen because people argue it has to X amount. It is however very important to tie it to inflation so it doesn't get effectively nickeled and dimed into continual cuts like the minimum wage largely has in many areas.
