I think we're talking about the same thing, but I explained it absolutely terribly.

If we "dump the other output" back into the power source, such as the battery, does that solve the problem of not implicitly dumping it into the environment? Or is it still destroying information?

I think that you could move those bits to destroy them somewhere else but what I got from pezezin post is that there are many order of improvement to achieve before that loss becomes significant enough to warrant the incredible complexity of shipping wasted bits to the heat sink.

How will you choose which output is the one with the AND result? You'd need some logic to pick which output was the right one, I assume. Then you've got the same problem again.
