You completely failed to understand the article. It wasn’t on science, it was on economics. The argument is basically it doesn’t matter if LED bulbs are physically “more efficient” in terms of watts. If people prefer incandescent lighting regardless of LED’s using less electricity, then LEDs are LESS economically efficient. Economics is the social science of economic value as decided by the preferences of human beings, not by measurement of wattage or even dollar cost. He also addressed the fact that LED bulbs are so expensive and fail sometimes that even the dollar savings aren’t as large as advertised.
These are economic, not physics arguments. The cure for your economic illiteracy might start with reading Mises.
The economics “arguments” are as wrong as the scientific ones. I understand both. I repeat...the article crap.
