That's not really a relevant comment. We aren't talking about Earth being in equilibrium, we are talking about ocean temperatures ending their rise. Parent used equilibrium to describe the end of warming, not to suggest that we'd reach some kind of desirable global homeostasis. I think we'd all be happy with a disequilibrium that made things cool down from where they are presently, or from where they'll be in 200 years.
