You're not understanding what I said. There are physical limitations to all designs and materials. Based on your logic, in the past 120 years of the development of the internal combustion engine it's efficiency in converting the energy in gasoline (or diesel) should be near 99%. It's not of course, because it's not physically possible. To get another, say 75% more efficiency from ICE makes it unaffordable to use as a power source.
