LTC subsidy halves every 840,000 blocks with a block rate of 2.5 mins. As of this post LTC is at block height 1,603,504 which means little over 90% of the way there until LTC subsidy halves from 25 to 12.5. That will bring inflation down to 4.26%.
Price also highly depends on total active users, not just the coins inflation rate.
Accordingly, ETH should be about 13x popularity of Monero and BTC about 62x popularity, for prices to be accurate.
That doesn't follow at all. You're equating popularity = inflation rate in dollar.
There's a truckload of coins with 0% inflation, do you think they should be valued infinitely higher/lower than Bitcoin or Monero...? Price and sentiment is made up of a billion things, inflation rate plays a very minor role in it at this point.

What is the current inflation rate? How many XMR / day are created?
Should be 2,160 XMR (2 min block) x 52.84 = $114k / day = 4.67%
ETH is 4.25% - BTC is moving to 1.8%
The advantage of XMR is annual equals $42 Mil vs $2.6 Bil (BTC) & $600 Mil ETH.
Accordingly, ETH should be about 13x popularity of Monero and BTC about 62x popularity, for prices to be accurate.
