Picking out a specific build that is viable with no energy is not a good way to argue this.
But, I will follow your logic...
I have a TS/Nova/FO/Static sorc (on hardcore) who has 2 jordans, frostburns, quite a few 30+ mana large charms 10 natural points in warmth and 150ish points in energy(+10ish to all skills from equipment).
She has a sick amount of mana (2300ish) along with energy shield and I STILL run out of mana consistantly when she gets going. She can go for a little while at full steam, but I couldn't imagine what she'd be like without all those points in warmth and energy.
As for this whole thread, most sorcs will want points in energy and warmth for obvious reasons, throwing us the exception (which every rule has, and even though putting points in warmth and energy isn't a rule, you should get the point. If you don't get the point then you probably shouldn't be responding to this thread) really does nothing to help in this discussion.

Do what you can about what you can do. Don't worry about what you can't help.
