Your entire argument is utterly insane

No. Fuel being a few cents more expensive will not cause a never ending loop of cost overruns

Your idea is essentially saying most of the cost is from fuel....its not.

Ok, so the fuel costs of a construction project will go up 1%, making the entire thing cost 0.25% more, leaving the fuel price increase in the clear to the tune of 75% of the increase.
