Very strange that a self proclaimed engineer is so reticent to understand any of this. In my previous experience, engineers and physicists were the most likely to understand and write about energy scale.
When I accumulate enough excess wealth,I'm going to buy you a window to look out of.And remedial arithmetic lessons.
Don't presume that physicists or engineers generally have a clue about a paradigm shift.You might be betting on the wrong horse.Where they live,what they have,and how they move will tell volumes about where their heads are at.
