The whole point of the oil is that a lot of it is all hydrocarboned together into these long chains and loops that bust open real energetically. It’s big and energy dense so it’s hard to produce naturally without a lot of existing chemical energy to store and pack together and then condense over geologic time. I don’t think it’s gonna come together for you in the clouds whatever you do to your atmosphere.
Titan has lakes of liquid hydrocarbons though. Simple stuff like ethane and propane. If we could get the propane cars going mainstream, we could try to talk them into going out there and scooping it up for them; I think there’s a fuck of a lot of it.
Burning tons of hydrocarbons in our atmoshpere so we can leave our atmosphere, go to another planet, collect more hydrocarbons, then bring them back to earth and burn them again, all while we could be harnessing the sun, wind, and water as energy. If thats gonna be our attitude maybe we deserve to boil alive in our warming climate.
Needs too much setup

I think I’d prefer leaving Titan’s hydrocarbons on Titan, considering Earth’s relationship with them so far.

You could bring them to Mars and burn them there. Thicken up the atmosphere a bit, maybe add some water.
