If I were Ayatollah of the world, here's what I think I'd do. I
would want good answers to all these questions, based on good
science and not just speculation, "common sense" or other less
reliable ways of arriving at a conclusion.

If I were Ayatollah of the world, I'd tell people that you are free
to choose whatever kind of light bulb you want.

I know this is a weird concept in today's environment.

Don't get me wrong; I'd be a benevolent Ayatollah, and wouldn't
necessarily depend on government mandate to dictate what kinds of light
bulbs folks buy. But I'd want to know into which basket we should put
all our eggs. Figure out the odds so we don't bet on the wrong horse.
[Insert clever metaphor here]
