Space X has done something amazing and practical while cutting costs. This looks more like a dead end to me, but I could be wrong.
Starship is also being built for earth air travel, and it’s a ridiculously huge machine that requires a brand new facility anywhere it wants to land in the world. A stratosphere kissing plane makes way more sense
