While I agree that them term carbon footprint can be misleading, some of your other points are off the mark. NF3 has been regulated under the Kyoto Protocol since 2012, largely as a result of the the research you're referring to. Its total radiative forcing compared to CO2 is rounding error. It's something to monitored, but hardly a major issue.

I don't disagree with your sentiment that we're already basically screwed, but I don't think that's an excuse to just give up completely.
