Unfortunately it's not that simple, because the planet absorbs that CO2 too. So in reality, the important thing is we're going from a delta of 0 gigatons of CO2 per year, to a delta of +40 gigatons of CO2 per year.

I wouldn’t say that this incident was “the result of” the sidestick issue. The fact that the airplane was in an upset at all was the result of prior miscommunication and pilot error, and while the sidestick confusion hampered the recovery,

Without swap you have two modes of operation: working fine, and not working at all (killed by the OOM killer). With swap, you introduce a third mode: working very slowly. The more modes of operation, the harder to reason about.
