don’t mean to shoot messengers.

I wouldn’t call any winners yet. politics has certainly skewed the market’s ability to sort out efficiencies but that won’t last indefinitely. Ultimately, displaced costs/subsidies catch up and voters will push back to what costs them less. Sometimes it takes a while, eg whales haven’t been a commercially viable commodity for >100 yrs but some governments are slow learners.
