The Deutschland Ticket is only for local and regional transport. You can't use it with anything "bookable".
But your point still stands. Germany needs to invest a lot. Most of the money goes to the Autobahn.

For example take the „Neue Alpentransversale“ [1][2] which was a 40 year project for modernizing the tracks through Swiss with connections to all neighbouring countries. The Swiss are finished. Germany did not even start and will be ready around 2040, for just 190km of tracks.
