Currently, DNA may not be a general purpose computing element as the examples you have given, but again this is beside the point you're trying to make, namely, the comparison between the energy efficiency of computation and the energy needed to create the elements which perform the computation. They are not comparable in any sensible way.

You're welcome to do that yourself, if you're so inclined. I doubt they would take your argument seriously though since you're not making any sensible comparisons.
