[[...I think interest rates generally reflect the supply and demand for capital. The inflation component, whether it is measured properly or not, is part of the demand side of the equation...]]

Are you sure it's not the reverse? It is the supply side that runs the risk of not securing enough yield to cover the potential loss in the purchasing power of the eventual return of principal.
