Original Note:
Ion thrusters, which are electric rockets by their very nature, can only be used in the vacuum of space and are useless in atmosphere and environments with significant gravity. https://www.physicsforums.com/threads/why-dont-ion-thrusters-work-within-the-atmosphere.923110/ This post is omitting that fact to try and prove a point.
