You are trying too hard :-) Your first point says that the predictions were correct and then the second point tries to explain the failures :-D
Re (2) and (3) peak oil people didn’t claim that oil will become too expensive or inconvenient to extract—the claim was that the oil will run out, full stop.
Re (4) we were talking about fossil fuels in general, not only about what’s used for transportation. But in any case, you can convert coal and natural gas to liquid fuel. The technology is well-known.
Paragraph 1: You said it was completely systematically wrong. I pointed out that it wasn’t systematically wrong and then explained the cases where it was.
Paragraph 2: Peak oil is not an ABRUPT EXHAUSTION, but the time of greatest production.
Paragraph 3: Go back. This was in response to my claim specifically about oil.
