True, but at a price that means this won't occur on very many of earth's =
many CM and even if it did, when you subtract the space required for =
cooling them and the space required to produce the power to drive them =
(and the cooling plants) and the space required to produce the fuels for =
the power plants and... you still come up short. Indeed, as you make the =
hosts more dense, you may come up even shorter due to the overhead of =
supporting them.
