That doesn't really matter. As we saw with crypto valuations, market cap is just number of shares * last price.

If you have 1 trillion shares and one is traded for $100 you have a 100 trillion market cap.

SPCX has 555 million shares, thats $180,000 for a share for this 100 trillion market cap. Don't be ridiculous.
Completely irrelevant to my point.

The point was just this: you don't need $100 trillion to actually exist for that market cap to be possible.

Sure, your point is factual, but it is unrealistic, which does make your point irrelevant.
