Huh, did you get this example from an LLM, or is it the bog-standard way of explaining it? I asked ChatGPT to explain what a "copper plate" is because I was lazy, and it used 1:1 the exact same example as you did (Germany,wind generation in the north paying a thermal plant in the south)

Nope, not LLM, and yes it's just the textbook example and that's why the LLM says the same thing (it's as if you were surprised someone explained distributed systems using Byzantine generals and the LLMs did the same).
