Looks like there's another mini-Musk...

The"burglars could work out when you're home from your power usage" argument is the only one I've heard against that, and it's ridiculously unlikely.
The burglers would have traditional low-tech means of working that out - but that data is still a mine of valuable information that goes far beyond the purpose it was collected for, and stopping or restricting the re-purposing of that is the problem

That nice Mr Sunak has an electricity and carbon footprint way higher than the citizens that he lords over - for heating the new swimming pool of his private residence, a new connection to the national grid had to be installed across open fields. And of course he has a weakness for helicopters, usually for quick short visits for photo opportunities.
Now, he could, if he chose to, avail of such a demand based contract - sign up for one that keeps the pool at the optimum temperature all year round, but then sell back the electricity for when neither he nor family are in residence, when the thermostat can be set lower. That would of course be the financial wizz kind of thing that his instincts would say he should do, but in terms of politics and the optics, very difficult to justify - at least until he has given up politics

Re: PPRuNe thread here
There's an interesting observation in the PPrune thread:
"...since in Europe all flights plans are centralized and go through IFPS , checked and redistributed to the ATC centers by Eurocontrol . So if there was an initial filing error by the airline it should have been spotted at IFPS level. but assuming it was not, then every other ATC center receiving the FPL should have been affected, and if not why only the UK system .
