Yeah, we've heard these:

When their carbon intensity still can't touch natural gas alternatives at scale, state owned enterprises are operating in a command economy, and they have no teeth to their carbon commitments.
They don't have to build new coal at 10:1 versus retirements to "replace aging coal" or stabilize the grid.
Coal is just too cheap and adds diversity,while nobody forces CN to enter climate agreements and looks the other way.
