I realize they can be repriced , but I still think that the options-printing-press-phenomenon could trigger a precipitous decline in market caps.

" Today's stock market is relevant to only raising new capital"

?. I am inclined to disagree because companies are using stock currency to make acquisitions of technologies and people.Thus - market caps do matter. Emerging gorillas and companies in the bowling alley (The Gorilla Game) increase their competitive advantage by using their stock currency to buy companies that will help them to control their value chain.

Companies will no longer reprice options.

They may issue new options but if they reprice they trigger a provision in the new accounting standard where the repriced options have to be reported as salary and all newly issued options from that point forward.

The rules changed.
