This is sort of true but skips the main problem with the framing. "Sustainable" doesn't even matter. If I drill an oil well for $100 mill and it throws off $30 mill a year of profit for 10 years and then dries up, it's a great use of capital. The idea that something with a life of "not forever" is bad by nature is silly.
