Bear,
Most (all?) of your anti-colonization arguments seem to be based on logic and/or profit. However, those aren't the only reasons why such efforts are or will be be funded. Emotions and personal wealth are contributors, too.
In particular, Elon Musk is determined that he'll go to Mars. Of course, whether he'll actually manage to do that has yet to be shown.
