It's a step in a new direction, a proof of concept. Maybe in the future something similar could be useful for road work or on mars or idk. No innovation & development without experimenting. You have to start somewhere and with stuff that is available.

And even if nothing comes of it, I bet it was a fun project to work on.

I made some years ago, I wanted to try what the seamen ate. I still have some left, good thing it doesn't go bad xD
