    The rationale of electric planes is unhinged. “We’re going to plan to expend energy as if future technology has already been implemented”.

        That’s beside my point, considering that all commercial electric aircraft being developed are basically all at or near the “announced plans to develop” stage and they’re already talking about expanding airports using these erstwhile emissions savings as a rationale. It would be more honest to say they don’t actually give a damn about the climate.
