Yep, we agree on that.

I still don't understand why the alternative to space based datacenters being proposed is off-grid datacenters.

Why not compare it to grid-connected datacenters with enough behind the meter generation and storage to avoid peak grid prices? After all the ultimate comparison metric is cost (and ideally C02 emissions)
