Again, you're misunderstanding the point. I really recommend you just check out the first few pages of chapter 4 of the full MIT report. Yes the emissions per mile travelled is less in EVs. Nobody is arguing against that. There's 3 categories here:

1. Emissions from initial production

2. Emissions from fuel production

3. Emissions from fuel consumption

For EVs, emissions from 1 and 2 are higher. But this is more than offset by having 0 emissions from the third category. So yes, the emissions per mile traveled is less in EVs. However the cost of fuel production per mile traveled is still significantly higher (around 192% higher)

PS you're the only one who used the word "cheaper". I only used it when directly quoting you. I presumed we were still measuring by emissions and not by dollar cost, but I see now that you were talking about something else

EDIT: check out figure 4.6 on page 68

On the contrary, you made the false claim about fuel production cost being more expensive for EVs yourself here when not quoting me:

> “cost of fuel production (also much higher for EVs)”
