True. But think of the status of going from point to point anywhere on earth in less than an hour. How much risk is that worth?

I think Elon said there is probably a market for delivering stuff to antipodes in under an hour, price doesn't matter. It's not a large market, and you don't get a steady daily business, but there will always be demand for it.
Until, of course, this sort of thing becomes trivial and super-reliable, and then the price will drop through the floor.
