Yes, it would still be cheap in comparison.
You are correct that there are externalities. But even if we priced in thise externalities, it would most currently NOT 100X the price (which is what would be required to make vertical farming cost competitive).
I would be extremely surprised if those externalities even came close to 2Xing the price of "normal" farming.
