This did not single handedly killed the Concorde, there are plenty of routes with substantial flying time over unpopulated areas. Presumably if the cost of maintenance and the fuel consumption were lower it could still be flying.
So assuming Boom fixes those 2 points, then not being able to go supersonic over land just lowers efficiency but does not mean it's not viable.
