Terraforming is a pipe dream, just the atmospheric pressure issue alone is way out of reach. How do you expect people to increase the atmospheric pressure of a whole planet by 80k Pascal? Do you have an idea of the scale that is, to bring all that gas into a whole planet's atmosphere and make it stay there without being blown away by solar winds since Mars doesn't have a magnetic field?
It's not "well studied", there are a few studies on how it might be accomplished but all of it is unproven and untested, no one has ever done anything close to terraforming a planet, reality has a pesky way of getting in the way of untested proposals.
