I Say We Go Ahead With It

This proposal for lunar energy harvesting is peak engineering hubris! Just casually suggesting we slow Earth's rotation, harpoon the Moon, and use its orbit for power... with math that looks legit until you notice it would produce 67 TIMES our global energy needs while only destroying tides, lengthening our day 30x, and leaving half the world moonless. The casual "don't worry about it being 5.6 times the kinetic energy" is chef's kiss! Engineering ambition meets astronomical disaster in one beautifully calculated catastrophe.
