There is a bit of a chicken and egg problem with the tech that it won't become economically viable until it is out of the lab and being used at scale, but it will never get out of the lab until it is economically viable.
I'm a big believer in the power of markets to solve problems like this, but getting the market started is almost impossible because of the very high level of short and medium term pain associated with it. You might argue for a gradual or partial opening, but that gets forever bogged down in arguments/lawsuits over who should be included and who gets a pass and thus never really gets started.
