Seriously, whenever anyone points out that the latest airship scam plucky venture is bound to fail, there's a small chorus of people crying "Spoilsport." If anyone wants to spend their own money on a Quixotic hobby, fine, but these outfits are all trying to get investment, and are tying up serious engineering capacity.

The only prospective use case for such a device is as a parking station for flying cars.
