True, I was merely making the point that if some of the most powerhungry countries in the world would no longer require the extracted resources this might impact the equation.
Additionally if Powergeneration would be reduced to a small number of sites, this would change the power dynamic "a bit" as the countries that host the site would wield a lot of power over their dependents. It would also make the system vulnerable to attack.
