Okay so convenience and ease are the justification you’re suggesting here?

  Huh? I am suggesting that just because its easy for you to survive does not mean its easy for others. Older people, families (especially those with young children). Areas with weather on either side of the spectrum. These are not just "edge cases". If I had to replace every single item in my fridge I could see it easily being $500. If I lived in an area with annual outages I can see the benefit again. A simple portable generator with a plug installed to your homes panel, probably $1500 all in. A whole house probably $10-20k. If I lived in an area that is prone to outages I can definitely see the possible benefit of installing the whole house generator. But I would say that the $1500 option is much much more common.
