Okay before I go further I need to ask the following questions:

  1. How old are you?
  2. What type of home do you live in?
  3. Do you own your home?
  4. What types of heating units have you lived with?
  5. Where are you located?

I don't want to waste my time breaking down how wrong you are if you're a 19 year old posting this from a college dorm.

You have this wrong. The problem isn't the age of other people on the Internet. It's that you don't understand that anecdote and limited knowledge are not a basis for judging the feasibility of a technology or making conclusions about what's useful for broad swathes of people.
