I just got done thinking/theorizing that the solar flex for a tidally locked M-class star earth like planet would need to be habitable mostly on the sunlit side for life to take advantage of its star. It seems obvious too me at least that 1 solar flex of solar energy pointed at the dimpole(direct sunlight) would be well into the 200f regime making it very unfavorable for life.

Such a planet would have part of its habitable zone on the twilight portion of the "sunside" but about the same would be on the dark side....Seeing that most life on earth needs sun light and needed sun light to form chemical bonds wouldn't an .4 to .7 solar flex be more habitable simply because most if not all of the habitable "area" would receive direct solar energy on such a world.

I couldn't see earth not spinning and be anything besides a oven over most of its sunlit side.

Promixa Centauri b is pretty much the perfect M-class tidally locked planet.

This one is probably on the colder side but if I am right it is probably also deserving of more respect

I believe something your "theory" completely fails to consider is the effects on the atmosphere of a tidal-locked planet. A planet rotating is constantly warming and cooling the atmosphere to provide a uniformity. With a tidal-locked planet, a uniform atmosphere is virtually impossible. Certain compounds and elements essential for life are either burned off on the sunny side or frozen on the dark side. Unless there is some source of internal supply of things like water and oxygen, there is no way life as we know it could survive much less thrive.

Can you please tell me how the fucking hell does this have anything to do with global warming? Are you now tying everything into that subject as a reason to hate science and the advancement of such?
