    Unfortunately your comparison still makes no sense, you are comparing the proportion of fuel coming from a location to the proportion of the population that benefits from a service that use the fuel in question.

    Really not meaningful 😅

      Had to read your sentence 4 times to understand what youre trying to say. Could have just said “no I don’t think it’s weird at all”

        My point is not that it’s not weird at all, it’s that in addition to quoting completely false numbers, you put forward a comparison that makes absolutely no sense. The numbers compared are not “weird” or “not weird”, they are absolutely not comparable.

          Interesting, now I doubt that we just have super opposing political views, rather we have super different working brains 😅

          Hope you will answer to this one too!

          Let’s say you have a garden. I take fruits and vegetables from your garden and add them to the dishes of some of my family members, maybe only to garnish the dishes of my 6 favorite kids. Meanwhile, most of your family members don’t have any food at all. You start to complain, want me to stop taking fruits and vegetables for my well-fed family because the garden is yours, your family is hungry, it could somehow benefit from the garden and its fruits and vegetables. Then you hear this:

          you are comparing the proportion of fruits and vegetables coming from a location to the proportion of the population that benefits from a service that use the fruits and vegetables in question. you put forward a comparison that makes absolutely no sense. The numbers compared are absolutely not comparable.

          Would you stop or continue complaining?
