What do you call it when you turn off a nuclear power plant and then turn on a coal power plant? This isn’t rocket surgery.

It’s like if someone left their first wife and got married to someone else, then did that a second time, you wouldn’t say that, based on who they’re married to today, they left their first wife for their third. That intermediate step happened.
