Well think about it, an asteroid just a mile wide hits a planet, the impact plume would reach about 20,000k, or 35,000 F, but on a planet wide scale even those numbers are meaningless, a statewide scale? Forget about it. We may think we’re hot shit when we can raise our ovens up to 500⁰ or melt steel, but, in the grand scheme of things we’re playing with grains of sand on the beach of energy manipulation
I’d say the amount of energy manipulation we do makes perfect sense for beings about the size of a human. We still have a long ways to go regarding efficiency but no need to heat a planet when heating your room or your food is enough.
I think your fascination with this just boils down to a fascination with the scale of the universe in general.

Could be, I tend to find things rather fascinating
I am envious of your sense of wonder.
