Fair point. I don't think that Bitcoin's parameters are necessarily "just right", but I'd argue that they are "close enough". An ideal coin that, as you state yourself, does not exist, but neither does an ideal traditional currency. Every currency and payment system out there has it's flaws, but not every flaw is necessarily fatal.
Particularly the deflation argument does not predict that Bitcoin will fail, it states that if Bitcoin replaces traditional currency, the economy will fail. If you choose to believe it however, it's an argument to hoard Bitcoin from a rational economic perspective.
People looking to criticize Bitcoin should rather focus on the centralized mining problem.
