Graphs aren't telling me anything.

What are the real world use cases now, today? The only thing I see in the QC space, are QC stocks and funding paying for the employment of scientific experimentation, which isn't a real world application.

Do I have to wait 15 to 30 years for a series of real world changing breakthroughs that I can already do on a NVIDIA GPU card?

That doesn't exponential at all, in fact that sounds very very bearish.

Then invest accordingly, and later reinvest your winnings in a different direction.

The graphs aren't telling you that QC hardware is not improving at a super-exponential pace?

There are no real world use cases today. The hardware is not advanced enough yet, but it's improving exponentially.
