Hot take: within 3 decades, building on orbit will be substantially cheaper than building on Earth, commercially at least. Open source designs will make this possible.
Individuals will be able to get permits to build on orbit easier than on land, and spaceflight will be even cheaper and more accessible than we anticipate. AI tech will make self assembling factories dead simple to design. It will really open up when we have a reliable system for handling space debris.
