If it's truly the "least efficient and most expensive way" of mining then you have no reason to be the slightest bit worried, it won't get done in that case. Obviously.

    This is true, but you'll also see a lot of investment scams by internet famous people, like funding a space company on the lies of Mars colonies

    SpaceX is a private company, it's not taking investment from internet people.

    Furthermore, its Mars goals are IMO the least revolutionary part of what the Starship program is working toward.
