    Well you can have solar, wind, and hydroelectric without steam, so it’s not like you need steam

      I didn’t say there weren’t some forms of generation that didn’t involve steam. I’m just saying those pathetic puny sources will never amount to the energy produced by generating steam. The sun won’t always shine, and the wind won’t always blow. And there’s only so many places you can capture flowing water. And even the most effective forms of solar use solar thermal to make steam. We just have to admit that steam is the GOAT

        They discovered a new power source!
        Does it involve creating steam and generating power from that?
        Well, huh, never mind.
