    I doubt anyone is under the impression that it is going to be as efficient as direct power. At least no one paying attention.

    Edit: The downvotes lead me to believe a not insignificant number of people don’t understand how energy works.

      Downvotes be damned: you’re right, imo. A wire just has less to worry about, and I’m sure most people would think the same. Most people.

        You’re also skipping two energy conversions by keeping it in the wire

      The number of people electrocuting themselves doing stupid stuff leads me to believe this, but these downvotes help solidify that lol
