Could make the argument that the retailers are sponging off us at all other times, we give them solar for pennies, they sell it for 5x the price. So it balances out?

    Yeah for sure, especially if the chain of measures is not clean. IE with my smart meter they know my export and pay me 2c, that then goes into the neighbours house who are on a dumb meter and they get charged 39c. I think things like that might be dark spots in the data the govt might be working off, but the retailers will know exactly how much "dark energy" (satire) there is in their purse.
