Ok, agree to let them build a coal plant or a battery plant in your backyard
then. Plug-ins and hybrids just transpose the pollution problem away from
where actual consumption is taking place. Environmentally I would much
rather have the ICE pollution over the coal / heavy metals pollution.

I expect that climate science is advanced enough to know what measurements

measurements.

I think you have misunderstood what I suggested, which was not a linear chain

Good points. When you consider it, measuring accurate global temperature is
a far more difficult situation than most people know. Heavens, even measuring
the mean temperature of a room over a period of 24 hours is no mean feat; where
do the sensors go? Near the window? Opposite the window?

Nice (I am really impressed by the ASCII art) but R2 is superfluous Horace.
Current is the same at all points of the circuit, so R1 (or R1 and R3) is
sufficient to measure the discharge current, whatever the nature (filament,
drops, ions...) of the discharge. Agreed?
