I don't understand Marlow's power company comments. I assume they are
charging me for whatever it is that Marlow is worried about.

If you are dealing with an honest energy company, YES, they will only
charge you for the energy I concern myself with, and they will not
include any charge for pesudowork done by pseudoforces.
Lets' sharpen the discussion here and compare what a power company on earth
would charge to a power company on a planet indentical to the earth, except
that it rotates much faster (say such that its centrifugal acceleration is 8
m/s^2)
...
...I would say the two power companies are going to charge different
amounts of money since the centrifugal effects on the mechanical
components of the turbines will be significant and will alter
significantly the efficiency of the turbines.
