    Tunnels can recoup their cost easily if they are used massively by many people every day. Any reason why you are against building a subway / underground railway?

    The display can only show a video well that has this property of only updating parts of the screen but not everything at the same time? What if the video content is like so?

    It's also good practice to chose an appropriate language for the problem. It's not premature optimisation to use a compiled language instead of Python when you already know the cod…
