Both are called DME. Only one is described on its WP page as principally a solvent. So, you probably should be more specific when describing your process, to avoid misapprehensions.
When we have no need or desire to oxidize mined hydrocarbons for heat, our remaining demand for mined hydrocarbons (e.g. to make into plastic) will surely be less than today. Then, the most easily obtained natural hydrocarbons will be the ones we mine, because we are not wasting them by oxidizing them to CO2, water, and heat.
Unless there is no bitumen dissolved in that readily obtained oil?
It is just possible that hydrocarbons made from gathered and cracked CO2 will end up cheaper than fractions of extracted oil. But I have doubts.
