lastly, with an electric pressurisation system, you dont spend ten hours breathing the oily nasties coming out of the engine compressor bearings. (the ones 'they' will only admit exist once the last conventionally pressurised aircraft has left the european register in 25 years time...)
Every compressor needs bearings, they all need lubricating so your electric pressurisation system will suffer the same risk of oily nasties!
