What about take off?
I don't foresee these ever taking hold as rooftop delivery for pax, but on shorter controlled fields in well regulated air corridors.
A short takeoff could be assisted with a cable tow, similar to gliders, but may not be what passengers might appreciate.
They only quote the run on landing in the context of flight endurance for certification for commercial flights.
