People seem to completely ignore that point.

Displacing 70kg of meat with 2+ tonnes of metal is a waste of resource, money, space, no matter the energy source

The article also doesn't seem to address the fact that particulate pollution from cars is now mostly caused by tires, EVs are usually heavier and have more torque = burn through tires quicker
