Fair. That's a very good point. Just like there will be a demand for non-fuel uses of oil for a while, I think that's a reasonable use for coal, although since Carbon is the input for steel making, CO2 distillation from the atmosphere would probably be easier than digging it out of the ground. But until that day, we should definitely keep some coal mining around, just not burning for electricity or heat.
