Given how much investment is pouring into quantum computing, it appears that this theory is wholly unconvincing.

QC can't scale because thermodynamics takes over at scale.
At scale the cat is alive, or it is dead.

“Given how much investment is pouring into QC” reads just like…
“All the ‘smart people in clown/fiat world’ are doing it, so they must be right” 🤦♂️
I remember hearing the same lazy “logic” in the ‘eyeballs/clicks per share’ days of 1999-2001.
The funny thing is that if you just sample a half dozen theoretical physicists, you quickly learn what a Silicon Valley/Wall Street scam QC is! 🤪🔫

Measuring the utility or validity of something by the amount of money wasted on it is a poor metric.
Nope, money is one of the strongest possible signals. You claiming that it's "wasted" is subjective. The money being put at risk is an objective signal, one could argue that investment is a form of prediction market.
