And it sounds acceptable too:

I'll keep this brief because I do not wish to drag this thread too far off topic.

1) The problem with ICE cars is the fuel, not the cars.

2) EV is the wrong answer to that problem.

3) A new fuel is the correct answer to the problem.

4) Nobody has to buy a new car. They just have to fill up at a different fuel station.

5) A new fuel in ICE cars = massive savings in cost for the consumer (see #4).

6) A new fuel in ICE cars = massive reduction of damage to the environment (although not necessarily reduction to zero damage).

7) The boy genius in not a genius. He's just a tech nerd manufacturing electric cars.

Okay, that wasn't brief enough. I apologize.
