I guess I'm confused. I see NN as a good thing. What am I missing?

My concern is this.

If the electric company no longer just sent power to your house and you consumed it, but instead says you will get X watts for lighting, Y watts for Air Conditioning, Z watts for cooking, and # watts for entertainment.

Then you end up down the "Comcast" rabbit hole where you have to upgrade your lighting watts to the next level and pay a fee for not using LEDs , which they will be HAPPY to provide for a fee.

I want to turn on the internet faucet and ALL the water comes out at the same speed and the same chemical composition.

The internet providers will absolutely bastardize the intent and it will soon be like free phones that are now $900.00 and amortized over your contract period.
