This is not a bad way to prioritize:

    I’m curious why long-haul aviation is easier than short-haul aviation according to this chart. Why would that be the case?

      Short-haul can hopefully be handled by improved battery tech. Long-haul would need even lighter batteries so it’s less likely to work or will take longer.

        Ah, makes sense! Glad to hear that battery tech is approaching the level where short-haul aviation is viable.
