Yeah, factoring in activities certainly gives us the advantage. I suspect most people have an idea of success more along the lines of mass of other species consumed. That seems unfair to plants though.

I feel some measure of chemical impact of the species to be the most level playing field, and that relative total energy consumption is close to the core of the question.
