Neat stuff, take an incredible amount of power (for now) - how will you generate it? China burns coal at an incredible rate to do so, Japan is well integrated with nuclear tech. to drive its Shinkansen and commuter rail systems. What will we do? This is practical over very long distances, not so much intracity or intercity if the cities are adjacent - far too great an investment.

Considering we are likely to be limited to around 640 acres for this first city we just need something useful for around town. Then again, a square mile doesn't take long to walk, bike, or use electric scooter. Besides emergency vehicles we probably don't need anything else for inner-city travel.
