I feel like it is entirely undesireable to support such pressures, even the 1e10 that is achieveable with ghc and bohrum+ plating already creates energy outputs that can be considered unreasonable for an engine to achieve.
Gotta fact check this cuz quick google search says the weakest nuclear power plant on earth absolutely dwarfs a non-scaling TeG setup that is beefed to the brim with mining's resources. And we're talking about an engine running on magic space age gas that burns at 15 times the temperature of the sun. It's powering a stable wormhole, a mining magnet with fuckoff giga range, and up to several sentient supercomputers, among other things.
Hell, an e+10 temperature TeG....still can't compete with real life nuclear power plants. You're telling me chemistry can produce infinite amounts of cheese-making aerosol and cargo and botany can each run the entire station without any other department's help but if I want to see a slightly bigger number that's too much to ask?
I have several bones to pick with your other arguments in this thread because I feel like they are poorly informed and just...hateful of engine goblins for no reason. Like getting big number doesn't hurt anyone. Imagine minding your own business with your toy train, and some adult busts into your room and breaks that train because they think the scenario you put your train in is "unreasonable". But I'm gonna wait until I've leveled off a bit cause I don't wanna make an angry post that might say some things that aren't in the spirit of the community. I hope you have a good day, and that no one breaks your toy train.
