  I'm sorry, I had to stop reading at "Second, metrics like the “per-transaction energy cost” are misleading because transactions themselves do not cost energy". Yes, this is technically 100% accurate. However it's also 100% missing the point, since for the transaction to be globally accepted, a hash needs to be mined. To paraphrase a few memes, "they're technically right, but they're being an asshole about it."
