I've always thought of carbon capture as something you do later in the timeline, after burning carbon to get you to a society that can make the transition to green energy. this might be the case for example if you need a certain amount of innovation and that requires a certain critical mass of brains thinking over the problem. or maybe if you're an accelerationista, you want AI to solve it for you and burning carbon now to train it might make sense. but I don't think the idea is to ever burn carbon to capture carbon.
