You cant make statements like that without looking at the math. That's the problem. Every time I look at the reality of implementing such systems I run into the reality that the cost, complexity and timelines just don't align with the imagined benefits.
I could be wrong. You could be 100% correct. I just have not found evidence to support these ideas. It all sounds good until math and physics do their jobs.
