I've been complaining about that for over a decade now with regard to highway diesel. They reduced the energy content, reduced the lubricity of the fuel so that lubricants must be added back to protect the fuel system, and made fuel cost more; for what? Acid rain isn't a problem here. I don't know a single person, who knows a person, who knows a person, that died of acid rain.
Then geniuses do the same thing to ships that burn their fuel away from everyone and everything, for what; to make global temperatures increase?
Maybe someone will invent a jet that runs on the discarded sulfur/oil mixture at high altitudes to introduce the particulates back into the air.
