Again I HAVE---you are just too brain dead to realize that the cost depends on many factors. There isn't ONE COST. It depends on diameter, what you are tunneling through, etc. This graph is probably the best way to understand tunnel cost.

Just moving the goal posts---the same applies everywhere. You cited a number that didn't even take into account diameter. Obviously you aren't an engineer or care about these topics seriously. It is just Elon fanboyism for you.

not moving goal posts. if you put elon's tunnel size (12.5) on that graph, it's literally still cheaper!
Thanks for proving my point

The estimated minimum cost for 12 m^2 is about a million dollars according to that chart. His tunnel is entirely comparable to the average cost to build a tunnel like that. The y-axis is in cost per METER, so yeah NICE ONE.

And if you can push 57k people per hour FOR A CHEAPER TUNNEL ($0 TAX DOLLARS), THEN YOU GOT A CHEAPER SUBWAY
why is this so hard for you to figure out

His tiny tunnels aren't safe with Teslas in them---once LV has a major accident, I am not really thinking they are ever going to expand this system to 29 miles lol...

Except when one Tesla is in an accident, it's in one of the safest vehicles on the planet and only 5-10 people are affected.
Meanwhile, a subway

This is nonsense---you repeatedly use data like this. Basically cheery pick things without ever looking at them holistically. It is completely dishonest to represent rail this way---and you do it while speaking about how people dishonestly speak about EVs.

that data is nonsense. considering global EV marketshare is <5%, your data includes cars that aren't as safe as Teslas.
and it includes drunk drivers, intersection crashes, and many other causes of car crashes that you won't see in tunnels.
you're the one being dishonest.

You are just hand-waving statistics (as usual) and ignoring stats that are against what you are saying. Yes, as I said EVs are safer than ICE vehicles, both both are less safe than rail. By several orders of magnitude. Tunnels don't make them safer.
