Does that include the inefficiency of simply transmitting it long distances over power lines? There’s a lot of loss in that process. I wouldn’t necessarily call that “stranded”, but it does show a mismatch of supply and demand between the location it’s created and the location it’s needed.

Transmission loss isn’t stranded per se, but finally people/hashrate can go to electricity (stranded or not) and utilize it vs. transmission to people.

So much waste in transmission loss. Not to mention cost of infrastructure.
