you've completely ignored my post, it doesn't matter if you think it's more productive if it's harder, more expensive and more time consuming in exchange for something slightly better than domes on mars. your hypothetical space habitat will be completely reliant on massive lunar and asteroid infastructure, as well as supplies from earth, with no hope of ever being self sufficient.
building a dome city on mars is guaranteed to be cheaper, easier and safer than an o'neill cyclinder, with immediate access to the resources of an entire planet, with the only disadvantage being the lower gravity (and we're not even sure that that matters either)
I'm not saying you're wrong to be excited for space habitats, most people will probably be living in them at some point, but saying that they're going to surpass mars as a focus for space colonization any time soon, that mars is forever going to just be the site for the equivelent of a fucking antarctic research station is pure delusion.

That one faggot who insists that rockets somehow can't work in space who shows up here from time to time.
