I thought we ended up learning that giant trucks delivering items door to door was actually greener than store chains since it stops millions of people driving around idling at stop lights constantly vs one truck delivering a shit ton of items.

That's the last leg of the journey, try again.
Well I have this giant pile of sauce here saying that you're incorrect... Or... Lol.
Or... You don't understand the distinction between stuff you get delivered to your door that comes to your country by plane instead of boat so you can get it ASAP and groceries?
Lol indeed.

My first message is clearly about air traffic and shit people get delivered

You're the one who changed the conversation to only talk about the last leg of the journey that's done by truck. Sure it's more efficient to get your new pan delivered to your door compared to driving to the store to purchase it, but it's not more efficient if it had to travel by plane to get to your door from China ASAP instead of traveling by boat.
Edit: At least that shut you up :)
