There are lots of small cities and villages in that taiga. They require some wires anyway.
Similar argument can be made about US.
I don’t see how your post refutes his? Russia is big, but it’s sparsely populated, especially anywhere east of Moscow until you get to Vladivostok. Countries other than Russia in their grid equally if not more so sparsely populated. Top that with disparities in Quality of Life between the two grids, and you find the larger one using less power because it’s services less clients who use less electricity.

Siberia is HUGE compared to anything.
Yes. And USA says “no, we are too big for unified grid and functioning railway, and density is soooo low”.
