this hole goes 5km out of 6.378km. So 0.1% of the way. Even if we drilled all over the surface (and see floor) it would make very little difference. There is just a lot of Earth and the heat conducts very slowly.
Atmosphere on the other hand is very thin and mostly concentrated close to surface (half is under 5km) so it's much easier for humans to fuck it up
