Hyperloop at least has the right idea: Building above-ground is vastly less expensive than tunnelling.

My thought process was...
Hyperloops are round + tunnels are round = Boring Company
Putting cars through the tunnels is not what I first expected.
It's the sort of thing a guy who owns a car company would do, not someone who's actually trying to solve a transportation problem.
Or a person who actually understands what people want in a transportation solution. Nobody outside of city planners and environmentalists take the train/bus solution seriously because it's such a lifestyle downgrade from cars.
