It was always going to start off with a big concept like this. Ideally thought this is a level of thought that would've been achieved/presented a year or two ago though.
You're 100% right. This is little more than a grand idea at this point. It will be 7-10 years before a fan enjoys either building.

Should we start a pool on how much this thing is going to cost? I'll start at $2B.

The screen shot above your post says fixed roof, so doesn't seem like it, or at least that's my interpretation.
