After two years of bronydom, I dreamed of ponies for the first time after reading this fic. So that's a 10 out of 10. I'm reminded of Eliezer's warning about imagining worlds so much better than reality that the act sucks out your soul.
In case you're interested in suggestions for improvement:
At certain stage of technological development it will become practical, trivial even. I think it's just it would be nice if more of the action took place earlier, before such decisive technological advantage is established.
