Yeah, ineffective photosynthesis is what I was thinking of -- that plus one ecologist saying that plants were actually 20% or more efficient at low light levels. Which is why I often think of CO2 extraction as the limiting factor... and thought that evening out the light supply would be a net productivity boon, after adjustment. Hadn't thought of dew though, never mind what rainfall would be like in this system.
