Yeah, I have no idea how long a tunnel of this size is supposed to take, and I’m surprised if many people here do.

It’s a big project, and it is tricky to patch it after release. The thing is supposed to last 300 years, and usually we use infrastructure well past it’s intended lifespan…

I wonder how long, unmaintained, it would take to collapse. Would some future civilization find a tunnel?
