This is about as "fantastic" as PRT and flying cars. If a case study of the perfect example of lopsided cost-benefit were ever found, this would be it.

Unfortunately this is the type of pie-in-sky vision that laymen futurists like to salivate over while much needed popular support for much more practical, affordable and beneficial modes like conventional and proven HSR gets sidelined. It reminds me of the Nietzsche concept of "always being pregnant with the future."
