People feel their computers return value in all sorts of ways that have zero connection to a monetary return on investment. The value of being able to communicate, to do research, to store their cat pictures, etc. No one is isolating out the marginal added value of additional cat pictures and measuring it against the cost of electricity. And even for the small subset of computer users just interested in bitcoin mining, they just have to know their own electric bill, not the resource usage across the entire network. So I'm not entirely sure what you're talking about.
