No, see I answered the actual question, which is oil. Which is mass limited. With how much energy would be available to do work at the destination.

You jumped to a ship two orders of magnitude larger and then insisted LNG carrying was mass limited, not volume limited.

I did not forget anything, merely pointed out the bizarre attempts to mislead.

Correct, and then you turned around and gave a figure for the relative energy density by volume, instead of mass (which would be a disparity 3-6x larger). And mass is the limiting factor for bulk shipping lithium ion batteries.

What are you even talking about?
