Quantum Computing, Good Investment, 10 years from now

Most quantum computing experts believe that quantum computing won't be profitable for at least 10 years, if ever. (see, for example, Professor Scott Aaronson's concurring opinion about this in the references below). They believe this for sound technical reasons: because for quantum computers to be competitive with current classical computers, they will first have to achieve "fault tolerant quantum error correction" for a large number (millions) of physical qubits.  The technologies required to achieve this are still a distant pipe dream. Recently, a fledgling quantum computer company called IonQ was acquired by a SPAC with stock ticker symbol DMYi. IonQ's initial valuation is $2B. Jeepers! Above is the DMYi stock price chart, as of today, March 27, 2021. DMYi's stock price is cratering so far.
