The first car didn't even have a roof on it and good luck finding a gas station. The first computers took up entire buildings. 25 years ago we didn't have broadband Internet, you had dialup.
No, it's a dead end. Not immature. Not "a burgeoning technology's with some kinks to iron out". It's the wrong proverbial tree to bark up.
