MODERATORS
I feel like they'd lose you in the second paragraph, unless maybe you were talking to an especially bright academic. Not because they don't get the concept, but because they don't get how that would help anything, living in a world where you make most of your own stuff manually.
Also, energy wouldn't be spoken about for another century after this, so you'll need to try again with electricity. The OG physics guys like Newton were still alive, and knew it as vis viva, but nobody else would really know what that meant.
