But this still leaves that there have so far been very few algorithms that show quantum advantage, and even fewer that have practical important applications. So while you argue that someday QC should be feasible, and I don't disagree, we still have made limited progress on finding actual applications that show advantage.

I don't disagree with you there, but the prospect of breaking RSA and similar things will cause at least certain people to continue at least some investment into this technology.
