You only need to get rid of CO2. There would be oxygen enough in the sphere for quite some time.

Yes, so now you're talking CO2 scrubbers, air monitoring, O2 replacement, cabin pressure management, and reliable power to keep all this life support running. It's basically a submarine at that point, all for $20k per pod? I'm skeptical this is practical.
