Very interesting read, thanks.

One common theme seems to be that “better is the enemy of good,” with (for example) pushback against mixing coal with waste for gasification, using cement plants or power plants for CO2, using biomass plant waste and such.

I see Bio/e-fuels as a “intermediate step” into the future, anyway, so I think trading a little sustainability for practicality is way better than nothing.
