By paying market price he is his own micro utility and could give himself a micro rolling blackout. The problem is no limit on his autopay. Did he turn of bill pay notification? I am sure he now wishes he was blacked out for his “protection” but that is not freedom.

Locking price down when not enough is like banning ticket scalping when show sells out, someone else determines who gets to attend.
We need more supply for extreme weather events. If you have money and never bought a generator then that is part of problem. Why were gas plants and production not winterized fully? Economically it was deemed not to make sense for a once in a lifetime weather event.
