If I had to bet I would probably bet that "all the gamers in the world" are using more power than "all the crypto miners in the world".

I can't think of a way to immediately gather any evidence for this either way but it seems like a plausible position to take.

(However - I think the value > utility chain is easier to argue for with gaming. I'm not making the same argument as the parent post.)
