Yes, they would both be pretty much worthless. Except they would cost you time and money to futz with them, so you'd be in the hole to start with and have next to no chance of getting your investment back. Unless the vortex generators were able to create a calibrated vortex in the space-time continuum allowing you to just teleport yourself instantly to your destination, so you'd save money that way.
