the economic angle far outweigh the technological angle.

And the political/religious angle, don't forget that one. Hate against "woke" goes deep, gotta drive that diesel F150 cause that's our patriotic identity!!1 /s

The economic angle argument backfires though in this thread's context. If fixing a little bit of behavior down here is too expensive then it surely is prohibitively expensive to attempt all that on a different planet. Everybody not seeing this as obvious has watched too much scifi.
