Ah okay I see your point. So that print rate is solely controlled by the witness feed price, which in normal operation is just the USD market price. They could choose to tweak it to make it higher, but they seem very unwilling to do so (unintentional consequences in a bear market, etc). So it is still married with steem price in a sense. But even this mechanism is slow and not effective at pushing prices down to 1 USD. And no other options really exist at the moment.
