You are mixing materials with fuel.
Very different application, very different outcome. That was why I cautioned it should likely be its own thread -- if you want.
Does not matter either way to me.
Have already done that math. There are plenty of materials.
You are not mixing "materials with fuel." Same application, different "materials." The last point, about separating issues that are obviously connected, is absurd.
Your last point contradicts your first. If there are "plenty of materials," then there's no need to separate discussions concerning different "materials."
You did not do "that math." All you've done is claim that there are "plenty of materials" and that techno-fixes will be in place soon, none of which you have proven except by ignoring various factors. And you've been doing the same in the other thread and in LATOC.
