How is it not relevant? Growing electricity production by very large relative amounts in short periods of time has historical precedence if even greater relative and faster growth, and I would consider that pretty relevant when discussing such things.

Because it falls under the belief of things being able to grow exponentially forever. Just because something could double for 3 decades straight doesn't mean it can happen just as easily in the forth.
double is still impossible on large scale
Under what definition of the word “impossible” could that be true?
