Your, best WTF moment in gaming.

Doing anything at all on a massive scale pollutes.
Elephants, partly because of inefficient digestion, cause major ecological destruction.

... as emphasised.
We talk about "pollution" as though it were optional, rather than an inevitable part of doing anything ... it's not whether we pollute, but what, where and how much...

And how can we make it reversible and sustainable.
I emphasized large scale as an unintentional dig at how overpopulated we are. I don't mean that population has passed some arbitrary OMG limit. Just that the more there are the faster we use up set resources and destroy irreplaceable parts of the planet.
Our species, with its western every luxury under the sun obsession, is too much of a hummingbird on crack, when we should be a more sedate bear, but not necessarily a comatose sloth as some environmentalists demand... to use semi-coherent animal comparisons.

"It's not electrical, it uses batteries." As in, immune to EMP, surge, etc.
Maybe I'm wrong but that's a definite WTF moment for me.

Wow, if you are going to ignore rules, then at least use the common definitions.
No matter how you read the rules or use basic English, that is simply wrong.

Many electrical devices shouldn't actually have the electrical disadvantage, such as your average electric motor (any high power electric device isn't that bothered by a transient power surge), but it's certainly not a particularly logical extrapolation unless you're thinking about not needing a surge protector against lightning bolts hitting the power lines...

Maybe it just has higher 1/3 HP.

GM today "you accuse me of GMing a high powered campaign, what was the last time you met a high power NPC other than the first session?"

US "The were with us throught most of the second session, and Antonimos is still with us!"
