I was under the impression that not all parts of the hyperloop would be near 0 ATM. only the parts when the capsule was moving would be ~0 ATM. (so each section of the hyperloop would be at 0 ATM for an extremely short period of time per journey)

That what my impression was as well, it's not supposed to be a vacuum tube, it's a low pressure tube and the vehicles create a lower pressure zone in front.
