I'm not reading anywhere about their economic feasibility there Aeronaut, only that while there's testing installations there appears to be some major problems still.
Which, admittedly, might just be lack of will to invest rather than anything truly problematic.

Call me when there's a laboratory prototype.
Science takes as long as it takes; it doesn't work to a schedule.
