The Neoliner Origin is a joke. It's a marketing stunt to greenwash the importation of low-volume luxury goods like cosmetics for rich customers who want to tell their friends about how they're saving the planet. The design can't scale up to transport bulk cargo in a cost effective way.

Sure but you have to start somewhere. Ive been reading about https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wind-assisted_propulsion for the last 30 years so I figure every slow step forward is still a step.
