Note though, this would be really hard to evolve. As an analogy, the photosynthetic center RuBisCO is fairly wasteful, so any organism that can improve on RuBisCO would have a huge advantage. Only problem is RuBisCO is not easily evolvable (like brittle code), thus we don't know of any improvements although they are quite possible theoretically.
