There is a market for civil e2e but big vtovl rockets can't fill it, they are too noisy to put in densely populated regions and if you put them on sea platforms you have to get passengers to them by some means which adds complexity and increases the trip time. A Black Horse type htohl spaceplane taking off from normal airports is superior for rapid passenger transport.

The Black Horse design is a much better design for suborbital passenger transport than Starship. Using normal airports rather than dedicated ocean launch platforms is a big advantage
