For the uneducated, what's wrong with it?
Almost every sentence. But funny self review and other things aside, main problems:
"Watts... Contains." Is a fundamental confusion on what a watt is. It's like asking how much fast there is in a box.
The answer has a good basic idea, but also a total comprehension failure not just pulling the numbers out of thin air, but badly describing an equation with watts on one side and watt hours on another. The answer is both ignoring realities and getting the hypotheticals wrong. Sounds expertish but is both wrong and useless.
When they could have just said "yes, you could use a suitable inverter with a suitable battery and a fridge in some cases, but the math and actual connections would be more complicated than that explanation" or something like that.
