If freezing salt water produces freshwater ice, why is desalinization such a difficult problem?

I was watching the above minute physics video, and they indicated in a brief one sentence line that saltwater freezes into freshwater ice. That got me thinking.

Under what circumstances could you actually freeze salt into ice? To make salt ice?

It's pretty condescending imo.

Like, what you're doing is like asking why starving people don't just order some food off Uber Eats...

You don't think this is asshat behavior? It's a real dick move to say something like that in a community for "no stupid questions".

...then go ahead and block me. I'm gonna do the same so I never accidentally answer a question for you. So feel free not to, I'll literally never know.

Alright, bye then. Your eagerness to block and run away tells me that you know I'm right but you don't want to accept it. It's okay to make mistakes, we all do. You just gotta apologize, that's all.
