“Diversifying isn’t a bad thing. But you’ve got to remember why you’re diversifying. Part of the goal is flexibility, so if something bad happens to one source of energy you’ve got others to pick up the slack. And that also means you have to have ENOUGH of those others TO pick up the slack. That’s one of the problems Texas keeps running into, they don’t have enough overage in their production capacity, so when one source goes down the increased demands on the other sources causes cascading failure and they lose a whole section.”

All quite true. I blame the bad results on bad choices made by naive Texans that are trusting liberals (leftists) to make those decisions. It never ends well when you do that.

No. They’re just not building enough. And off the national grid can’t get any help. They chose to be independent and then didn’t do it right. It’s not left or right, it’s hubris.
