You appear to be aggressively agreeing with the person you replied to with your source.
They said the US could spend 8 Trillion a year and it would still make financial sense.
Your Mackinsey report says the whole world should spend 9.2 Trillion a year to make the transition and that it makes financial sense to do so, both due to avoided costs of climate change and that many of the things needed to transition have a positive return in investmemt anyway.
Your own contribution on top of the report just seems muddled and confused given what you've cited.
Are you saying Mackinsey are wrong and it would be cheaper to do nothing? They're very clear even in the executive summary that is not the case:
> The rewards of the net-zero transition would far exceed the
mere avoidance of the substantial, and possibly catastrophic, dislocations that would result from unabated climate change,
or the considerable benefits they entail in natural capital conservation. Besides the immediate economic opportunities they
create, they open up clear possibilities to solve global challenges in both physical and governance-related terms. These
include the potential for a long-term decline in energy costs that would help solve many other resource issues and lead to a
palpably more prosperous global economy.
