Sounds very wasteful to me. Why would a Type II civilization expend
so much energy just to contact a lowly Type I civilization like us?
I agree.
There is not much use in flashing lights at alien cows, since they cannot answer any way.
It's so much intelligent for them to set up a smaller beacon and wait until we develop technology to find it and we can actually
answer them.
A Type II civilization did not become Type II by being wastefull and stupid.
