I don't think you quite get the engineering challenges of building a hypersonic aircraft.
It's not just a case of slapping bigger engines on. The demand for a passenger scramjet isn't high enough to offset development and maintenance costs.
For moving large payloads, we're not moving away from turbofan any time soon.
