>and transmission loses are negligible, as are EV efficiency loses
Most of the transmission losses are in modulation, like in a substation or in the plant. This is where most of the losses to heat are. Picrel says 6-10% but losses increase with system load. Some shittier countries its 20-30% losses. Then you have the 10-15% losses within the EV itself. And probably some in the chargers. Not negligible.
Then EVs weigh more and have a weight floor because battery packs are heavy and require shielding and a complex cooling system to avoid explosions.
Then the production and waste, you can't ignore that.
You can't just ignore things and legislate over how you wish the would could be.
