No, subgrid is not included. (But we already implement display:contents, which can do some of the things subgrid can do.)

Sure, employees of oil companies are one of many parties affected by environmental policies, and should be considered.
But nearly all government policy, including the creation of a government in the first place, involves wealth redistribution.
My original objection was that "paying for" seemed to obscure that the effects of the policy were not a simple transfer.
... and not consider "oil companies" as entities deserving of fundamentals like food & housing in the way people are.

Sure, evaluating effects of changes to policy is good. But I'd evaluate them against categories like income/wealth distribution...

... produced by the sum of government policies (which are hopefully good for their own reasons) and adjust appropriately.

Rather than using that to argue that police should be paid for only by the rich, we should consider the overall distribution...

Things about "who bears the cost" of a very specific policy aren't interesting since basically *all* policy effects distribution

Right, so it will raise oil prices some, reduce oil usage some, and the same for things that depend on oil.
Distributional aspects can be corrected by other policies that change distribution. But don't know what you mean by "still paid".
