Bitcoin can be replaced with something better.
Did you know the only unique part of bitcoin that Satoshi created was the proof of work?
Everything else about Bitcoin, he copied from digicash, bitgold, and other pre existing crypto currencies.
Proof of Work is what made it possible for anyone to become a miner instead of relying on centralised authorities like banks the way digicash and bitgold did.
Bitcoin was an improvement on digicash.
Monero seems to answer the questions Bitcoin failed to answer as a "digital P2P cash system"
Turning Btc into a utility coin is going to make it too expensive to use as money.
The utility coins that actually work are pos not pow, so Btc as a utility coin will also likely fail.
This will finally open the door for true alternatives.
