Right but i think part of the argument being made above is that we shouldn’t bother will all this pie-in-the-sky stuff because the gas transition has caused almost all the actual emission reduction. It’s boneheaded as a statement on climate policy, but in a way i think is constructive to explore and apply more broadly.
If you have achieved big gains doing some thing X, but you are very confident that ultimately X has fundamental limitations such that it can’t possibly solve your ultimate problem....then it’s not good to put all your resources into X. (cf RLHF, i guess)
