Typically I agree completely. However, this project (it will become clearer when I write up a formal paper on it) will involve selling the NFT's on Opensea, so the costs for me will be the activation fee only as they use the lazy minting process. The innovative aspect will come from where the funds will go if/when sales are made, and that is what I am excited about. In this case, the volume of people trading on ETH is enough of an advantage to cover the costs
