Oh you're changing your reasoning to time.

Ok, goalposts.

? No:

Its cheeper faster and better to fly. Thesis tands.

You just had a missunderstanding on your part thinking I was only talking about it being cheaper.

Per hour its vastly cheeper in the glasgow example anyway. So if you want to keep the goalposts where they are, it's still cheaper to fly.

The reality: We dont live in the future yet, get used to it.

It is not cheaper to fly from Glasgow to London and your image macro depicts price only.

Goalposts.

Since you'll have 3 hours less to panhandle in London than if you flew it costs less.

And anyway even if I did concede that a 5 hours train trip that is 10 dollars cheaper and therefore better, you still have 3 other examples in OP that demolish that savings.
