We measure energy per workload, not per rack
A rack-level number flatters the operator. A workload-level number tells the customer what their service actually costs the planet.

Reporting energy at the facility level is easy and nearly useless: it rewards filling racks rather than running efficient software. We publish energy per workload because that is the number an engineering team can actually act on.
The effect on behaviour is immediate. When a team can see the energy cost of an inefficient query path, the query path gets fixed. When the number is hidden inside a facility average, it never does.
