Time out. I think the wasoxygen is only saying that there are tradeoffs. And the mining of ridiculous amounts of ore (not to mention the current impossibility of mass battery recycling) is a tradeoff that the EV boosters just handwave over almost 100% of the time. ICE engines have beaucoup problems, but they're still the devil you know for the time being.
