This is the part we are disconnected on. It is the hardest part to guess about.

If the accounting works out like an airline, I agree with you that costs will remain high and will not change transportation significantly.

However, unlike an airline, the variable cost per ride is low. The way I see it, the economics will work out more like a data center (relative to an airline). Which is something Wall St does reward.
