This reminds me of the Technology Connections fridge rant video. Similar arguments all around, the dumping effect of cold out of a vertical fridge is pretty crazy to watch with a thermal camera.

Couldn't find that in the 26 minute video. But for a total energy cost of $70 per year, why is this of interest to anyone?

Some of us live off-grid. Some of us live on-grid but the grid is unstable (or we think it may become unstable in the future). Some of us do not have the same time/effort versus money tradeoffs that you do. Some of us want to reduce our emissions more than others. Some of us just really enjoy optimizing.

It registers to me as the same sort of impulse that drives optimizing a bit of rarely-used code. It's more of a principle-based interest than a practical one. In other words, it's very human.
