I think it is possible by softfork if we try hard enough?

Your solution seems to solve the problem of chain halting, but there are more
issues. For example: if you have some time modulo 2^32, then you no longer know
if timestamp zero is related to 1970 or 2106 or some higher year. Your "k"

It's well-known. Nobody really cares, because it's so far off. Not
possible to do by softfork, no. It is possible to do by something that
becomes a hardfork in 80 years, though, which is probably good enough.
I proposed a solution, but nobody was really interested. Let's see if
anyone bites no
Making Bitcoin function after 2038 is by definition a hard fork
I feel if we do HF, we should bundle other HF changes with it...

There are faucets that accept such addresses, for example

Interesting discussion. Correct me if I'm wrong: but putting too many
features together in one shot just can't make things harder to debug in
production if something very unexpected happens. It's a basic principle of
software engineering.
