Adaptive optics have zero issues if you’re looking to make a cool picture, but they do introduce bias which is an issue for scientific instruments. That’s largely offset by more and larger telescopes for the same price, but it is very much a tradeoff based in launch costs which are falling.
IMO, over the next 30 years space based telescopes are going to play an ever larger role.
