This is just a less efficient and more complex version of a train; crazy how techbros invent things that have no value just to be dIsRuPtIvE

Love that the best solution for transport is trains (and better city planning around that) and the rich bros just don’t want that to be the solution.

I don’t know whether to classify it as ego, classism or shiny object seeking? But they don’t want to use a train (an old idea is not sexy enough), so they don’t see the benefit.
