as比较用法疑问

Carbon prices could go up as dramatically as when the Arab embargo drove up the price of oil in 1973.

老师好,请问这个句子as...as是不是用错了?我查了查碳排放交易,发现上世纪90年代才出现这个概念,那么这个比较句补充出来的as it went up…是不是有问题?而且这个when从句我觉得语义上也别扭,似乎去掉when才是作者要表达的……

网友的质疑是有道理的。as从句删去when, 才是作者本来想表达的意思。用when是错误的。

Hemingway's way of life had now changed as dramatically as when he and Hadley had left Chicago for Paris.

Tragedy was averted in England, too, though not quite as dramatically as when my mother hacked up the snake.
