There are two simultaneous problems that I've come to understand with datacenters and the people that live in their proximity:

1. Somehow the public is always left holding the bag for increased transmission costs despite the cause of the increase being a single (or short list) of outliers.

2. The residential public, as is tradition, is always asked to scale down for industrial demand.

How can we imagine expanding a system that results in both of these outcomes? That, to me, seems to be the thing to fix first.
