Its the same thought process that makes people say things like "I hate wind turbines, they're ugly and ruin the view"

Weellll… traditional large wind turbines have a shockingly low effectiveness/cost ratio, which is why they are best used in places where wind is blowing far more frequently than not, such as out in the ocean or on mountain tops. And they aren’t the prettiest. And they have massive space requirements to avoid negatively impacting each other.

Honestly, I much prefer solar power, which can be very densely applied and hoisted high enough to permit agriculture beneath it.

But yes.
