These canceled New York offshore wind farms totaling 1.7 GW just officially made a comeback

9. It really isn't

They're playing games with the figures.

1.7 GW of capacity x 40% capacity factor x $150/mwh = about $75 million per month.

That isn't just $.75 extra per home per month over just a million homes. They're splitting the cost up over a much larger area than just the city and Long Island (and thus is a far smaller proportion of demand). If NYC was footing the bill by itself energy bills would skyrocket.

And as far as "unreliable" goes, that's where energy storage tech comes in.

Which isn't available at anywhere close to that scale - and isn't free. When comparing energy from different sources, you need to account for those extra costs

that's quite a bit for only the first 2 plants

"Only" the first two plants? They will be two of the ten (possibly top five) largest offshore plants in the world.
