The definition of inflation is a deterioration of the value of money. Nothing about this requires or suggests that it affects the prices of some goods more than others, or prices more than wages. If there is relative movement between distinct prices, or between prices and wages, this is an orthogonal phenomenon to "inflation", by definition.
The idea that inflation and unemployment move inversely and (broadly speaking) represent a policy trade-off is literally the first chapter of Macro 101. With all respect, I see it as very difficult to discuss economics on any serious level with someone who is not aware of this notion, or who believes the opposite is true (as opposed to someone who has a critique or a nuanced view of it).
2) To tame high inflation central banks need to raise interest rates, thus creating unemployment and economic slowdown in general https://rsmus.com/insights/economics/how-high-must-unemploym.... That's also much worse for the poor than the rich (who can afford not to work a few years without being thrown to the streets)
But honestly, you're right, we are talking past each other here there is nothing to be gained.
