You were talking talking about "energy intensity" not energy efficiency in the economic sense.

I was talking about both energy efficiency in an economic sense (dollars of real production or income per unit of energy), and energy efficiency in a mechanical or physical sense (work done per amount of energy input). Both have improved.

Energy efficiency (even "in the economic sense") has no direct connection with how much you pay for energy. There is an indirect casual link, but that indirect link is that if you pay more you tend to work harder to get higher efficiency.
