Shor's algorithm needs technology we still don’t have. Get back to me when we can have more than a handful of qubits reliably compute things.

We only need the ability to make make 1 qubit with indefinite reliable / fully error corrected state. Quantum interconnects would allow for these to be connected into arbitrarily large quantum computers.
