I understand what you’re saying, I just don’t think it’s easy to deliver such low density heat in a useful way. Large datacenters are located away from residential land because they can be unpleasant to live near, and while businesses could be close by, what industries can utilize a huge volume of ~100 degree air?
Heat is heat, "low density large volume" or whatever, they've successfully used it in cold climate locations to heat residential homes already.
