Yes, I was talking more about an attitude than your specific concern. Though your framing still contorts the issue in a way that makes a coal plant appear like the proper, ideal solution while this new "problem" method is some shady, questionable alternative that must have hidden flaws. And you continue to list more speculative flaws in this comment as well.

What do you think of the idea that, given proper experience and technology, we can have a grid system that does not suffer from inadequate wind/solar/hydro/battery? That is the mindset we need to shift our framing to as these technologies continue to expand and prove themselves on larger and larger scales. I have no doubt people had to shift their framing around the entire idea a reliable coal-based electricity production once upon a time as well.
