I’m really not sure what point you’re making. Where has anyone proposed a climate solution by using all of the world’s helium?
What we do use helium for today are things like MRI machines that are medically invaluable, and we do so wastefully potentially denying future generations this technology.
Even if we eventually find alternatives, it may be inferior or we may otherwise deny them technological advantages of similar importance that would be more accessible through access to helium.
The problem is that today Helium is cheap enough we’re happy to boil an MRI machine’s worth off into space for a child’s birthday party.
Climate change is simply another face of the same coin of indifference to the costs we confer on others.
Maybe someone will invent Helium fission power! I did say "hypothetical".
I don't think we disagree, I just consider other ecological challenges far more serious than running out of Helium.
