I never said economic return, it is a theoretical discussion, the gen 1 insight lost honda money, the original veyron lost money, every solar car ever made has lost money. As I wrote in the closing remarks part, it is not commercially viable and may never be. But it is theoretically possible.
It is a discussion board, where we discuss aerodynamics, a lot of that is theoretical.
Complexity, you may have said that photovoltaics, traction control, computer suspension, adaptive cruise control, or lane assist, collision avoidance, or full self driving was too complex initially based on the reward, but they are now mainstream.
It is a bad idea for you to pursue, it wouldn't sell books if it discusses things that don't apply to any readers' cars. But that doesn't invalidate the theoretical possibility which was the discussion here.
