    There is a reason why Dyson spheres are science fiction. That reason is not “there’s not enough water to boil”. If we were to somehow have the technological capacity to build a Dyson sphere it would most likely use some direct light to energy solution, something like photovoltaics. Or if it did need to go light -> heat -> electricity it wouldn’t be using water, it would be using noble gases.
