Markets for lower-cost transportation can be forced, if you have deep pockets
(or some other way to stay solvent) to survive a few years of lag while the
market catches up to your newly available lower-cost capability.
Don't forget though (with regards to investment) that capital has a cost and
that cost needs to be serviced. What's more, higher risk generally requires a
forecasting of higher returns for an investment to make prudent sense. So there
are very real constraints on how much someone can force "lower-cost"
transportation without some radical advancement in technology or business
operation efficiency, unless that someone is willing to donate some capital to
the cause.
