there's no point in additional LNG terminals because the international market's actually saturated so the terminals would largely sit unused and it would be a wasted investment.

Personally, I find that needing to have a terminal for export is a bottleneck, which is to say, a fetter of a different sort. And given that some countries rely on Russian natural gas or on coal or oil from whatever source, and US methane is to be preferred over all three of those, this is a case of those focused on a Platonically pure ideal insisting that others go without rather than be tainted by something less pure than the Perfect.
