Everything does happen for a reason. In many cases, it happens because some evil prick has not been properly dealt with.

Interesting. They only works in a few cases, but It's good to have the options.

The difficulty is, to put it in very simple terms, is that physics doesn't allow that. The less simple explanation is a thermodynamics textbook, and trust me, you don't want that.

Everything generates heat. Everything. Everything. Anything that seems to generate "cold" is generating more heat somewhere else.

Note your use of the word "cool."

No sunlight for 10 days at a time.

A condenser will generate the same amount of heat that they are trying to dissipate.

Remember, tortillas make every kind of meat better.

Can't imagine you'd want to put your mouth on a pig or cow either, but properly butchered and prepared, they are quite palatable.

I imagine it's the same principle.

One reason might be shipping. A car probably takes up the same space in a shipping container as four cars worth of steel.

I don't know where the break even point is. But it's likely to be more complex than you describe.

Good on them.

Rich assholes need to either play fair, or be removed.

I can see that, but I've always expected tidal waves to be far more destructive. This is, as you say, an astonishing amount of movement, but nothing like I was expecting to see.

Am I missing a joke?
