Why memory-hole? It is a good working idea for very fast ground and underground public and cargo transport. It is not idea's fault that first implementation attempt was taken by some hyping unreliable and unbalanced billionaire.
If you still want to memory-hole something connected with Musk - try electric cars on batteries. The dumbest idea ever, a car with fragile and unreliable fuel tank that costs and weights half of car with insane refuel time and limited number of refuels and worst mileage ever that hugely depends on the outside temperature.
It never made sense. The idea is a century old and there's a reason it wasn't tried. Maglev train in a vacuum will never be more cost efficient than just a maglev train.
It was tried, and even sometimes with great results.

Vacuum is not only a way to remove air friction. It is also a way to rise the speed of vehicle above speed of sound.
Since TPTB forbid civilian supersonic planes, allegedly because of that sonic boom that annoys some unnamed persons, there is only one way to brake that limit - travel in vacuum.
You're forgetting all the impossible promises that came with the hyperloop. It was always a scam and they've never made anything remotely close to a working product
Really I don't care about Hyperloop at all. I'm talking about idea of vacuum tube transport.
If you, say, hate Musk or specifically Hyperloop, that does not mean you obliged to hate idea he tried (or pretended to try to fool investors) to implement and failed.
