You need to read the article before you give generic comments.

> it was claimed Boring Co has no chance of duplicating or significantly improving on the speed

The claim holds up. The article shows evidence that this is not faster than existing transport at all. It is in fact slower. How did you not read this??

> Now, after Loop demonstrated vehicle rates that would beat most light rail projects

They did not demonstrate this. Why put this lie out there?

> that it has minor usability quirks

Major usability problems. It is strictly worse than every existing transportation system.
