I think it’s the opposite. We’re all used to “a billion” now, even thought we can’t really concieve of it the way we can, say $100. But a trillion is just space money. Just make it a gazillion.
500 Billion has real competitive traction - people are billionaires, this is more than them, etc. A trillion is something you have nanoparticles of, something very small.

“Billion”, sadly, is a term that nowadays conjures an individual human or corporate level figure.
“Trillion” is an economy level figure and suitably conjures an idea of how fucked up you all are.
IMHO.
