I don’t care if it didn’t bend. Never underestimate our ability to overcome an engineering challenge. The 3D publicity video relied on an impossible object, but this doesn’t preclude the manufacture of a possible object. It all depends on how much money is getting sunk into the thing. It’s similar to the Hyperloop. On paper it doesn’t look great, but I’m waiting to see how engineers sink their teeth into the problem. It may turn out to be vaporware in the end, but I see no reason that cynicism should be the default. I mean, humanity has gone to the moon.
