Not to mention that simply building more carbon-dependent infrastructure over those 10 years means there is that much more to unbuild in order to transition. There are a lot of ways this number is just so inadequate. It is easily a gross underestimate. The effects are exponential. The lost potential of all the lives and ecosystems that would be destroyed by inaction, not just in those ten years but for the decades or even centuries of carried over effects, just can't be covered with a number like this. Making it comparable in magnitude to something like the pandemic relief is just plain bad research and irresponsible journalism. One more example of downplaying just how catastrophic this issue is and thereby doing the opposite of helping.
