    The argument is basically:

    • we know no heating has no effect on GDP, so L(0)=1
    • Make up a number for L(1)
    • Make up a number for L(2)
    • We now have 3 points so fit 1/L to a 2nd degree polynomial
    • Extrapolate this to L(3) and L(4)
    • Insert this-is-fine meme

    To anyone who has ever done anything with maths or just numbers, this is absolutely insane
