    I agree. No combustion car is 50% efficient while all EVs are at least 80% efficient (energy wise). Complaining about how other people choose to use the energy they pay is a waste in itself.

      Even when the waste is going to drive up electricity prices? Should we also not complain about ai datacenters because they pay for the energy they use?

        If energy waste is a concern to you, spend your time helping people switch from combustion cars to EVs. If induction charging is what it takes, that’s fine.
