Except for politicians and VCs (that each have their very own agenda), airtaxi enthusiasts give me the same vibe as "crypto enthusiasts" (not: the overly sales-y type) - I get and agree that the general, naive value proposition is "great", but it's just not feasible and there's so many lower hanging fruit that could be adressed in the meantime.

And no one seems to address the often brought-up hard questions:

- Look at the (often) questionable security theater at airports and tell me how you'd scale it down to airtaxis?

- The people that for the foreseeable future will be able to afford airtaxis? Celebrities and enterprise C-level persons, not _you_

- Even if "free sky cars that run on zero energy" popped up from nowhere? The average person has a hard time navigating in 2D and can barely leave their hands off their cellphone

- "AI will fix it"? Sure, dream on.
