Agreed. I think black tea, in particular, can have like 75% of the caffeine in the same quantity of coffee. See, for example, the table at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caffeine#Natural_occurrence

There's obviously some difference in metabolism of caffeine from coffee and from tea.

I drink 3-4 huge 0.5L cups of green tea during the day and it has no energizing effect. I rarely drink coffee but when I do, it energizes me a lot.
