In medicine, it's a solution for someone who wants liquidity (buy kids new home, help local dog shelter, add a new mistress) and doesn't want to retire, yet.
The problem is that the terms are custom and YMMV as an existing patient of said practice.
I was referring to the use of the word "load-bearing". It was most likely an intentional joke, but it's one of the most grating current AI-tells to the point it's a word you'll at this point generally want to avoid (unless it's a joke).
And to add, you're already close to maxing out the underlying limits by default as required by auto lenders. If not financing, you should still...get similar levels to add umbrella.
For the parent, an extra 1M umbrella is an extra $2-300/y and covers beyond auto!

Many are being built as backups and peakers rather than baseload, designed (or retrofitted in the case of existing plants being upgraded) to be able to cycle up and down to balance wind and solar. They are running at low capacity factors, not actually burning much coal.
Many of these are idle so much that their owners have financial difficulty keeping them open, and the government has had to start paying them for their idle time so they won't go under.
Most of the rest are to replace existing plants that cannot not yet be replaced with renewables, so are at worst neutral on coal usage and are usually actually more efficient than the old plants so there is a reduction.
* "Receiving capacity payments subsidies to stabilize grid"
* "We won't run these plants at full capacity"
When their carbon intensity still can't touch natural gas alternatives at scale, state owned enterprises are operating in a command economy, and they have no teeth to their carbon commitments.
They don't have to build new coal at 10:1 versus retirements to "replace aging coal" or stabilize the grid.
Coal is just too cheap and adds diversity,while nobody forces CN to enter climate agreements and looks the other way.
