"My problem with articles such as this, is that it shuts down the idea without actually exploring it's concept. It is a great idea, and yes, it does have a few issues to work through. However, it is still in proposal phase. This means that while many of the issues we are talking about haven't been fully articulated, that doesn't mean that they haven't been thought through. If we never proposed ideas that played on the verge of possible, then great ideas would never exist. Don't shut down the idea, but rather think about the solutions that could work. Your article was less convincing about the failure of the project than the plausibility of it."
