This may change the value of other worlds. If they have lots of Carbon, it may be economic to "Mine" them.
I hope the high powers do not mind that I made this its own topic here, it seems to me that going forward procuring Carbon on this world and many other worlds, will drive much of the future economy.
I note that if they can make power lines from Carbon, then it should be possible to "Mine" the Copper and Aluminum out of the existing power lines over time.
And I know Orange Man is a windmill hater, (Even so at this time I like the color Orange), but I wonder just how high of a windmill you could build with Carbon.

Is it possible that the root of political science claims is to produce white collar jobs for people who paid for an education and do not want a real job?

Re: Carbon is the New Metal
I am speculating that a country like Australia might be able to make Carbon products from the air.
Perhaps that industry would only run during the day. I suppose they might source Carbon from Natural Gas, but maybe they don't have that much of Natural Gas.
If they could grow vegetation with sea water then they could apply pyrolysis to it to extract a Hydrated fuel and also Carbon. Again pyrolysis could be done during the day.
This could apply to various places in the world.
Obviously the value of Carbon products will matter.
Probably with automation and humanoid robotics the labor to produce Carbon Products is going to benefit from low labor costs.
