There may well be a use case for cheap plentiful space flight. That doesn't mean that there exists a market for taking things to Mars.

If there are people there there will be a market there. I do expect that there will be people there within 100 years, probably sooner, if not for any reason, because a really rich guy that runs the most capable space launch company wants to make it happen.

Rich and powerful people have wanted many things to happen throughout history. A lot of those things did not happen.

And a few dozen people living in a high tech cave is not a market.
