This is how consumption of any resource works, in any group where the number of people using it is more than 1.

If I drink less water than you, am I subsidizing your water usage. I'd say so!

Not the hill you want to die on, trust me.

Except in many places you pay water by amount used (Islamic and some other countries excepted). This is the case for loads of resources.
