Well that's a strange way to say "oops"
Anyway, the cost is really a decision that only the buyer can make. It is too simple to just weigh the cost of fuel to the cost of the windows. There are other factors that may weigh differently for the particular buyer. ...Perhaps the buyer wants that extra layer of Low E glass (of triple) to help slow the fading of a heirloom carpet or chair. Perhaps they want to slow a draft that is put in motion by a large wall of window. Maybe the home-owner would rather spend to insulate windows, but allow air leaks to mitigate the build-up of radon gas. ...perhaps the owner can get the triple pane windows for the same price as doublepane.... etc.
