I suppose looking through some very narrow lenses perhaps, but practically speaking I don't think they're different in their effect on consumer behavior. Inflation occurs when sellers control their prices. Price fixing technically doesn't allow inflation.

So in those places inflation can still run rampant even if official prices are fixed.
Do you have a different take?
