It's like arguing for fossil fuels. They're cheaper, we already have a delivery system, the whole world is dependent upon them, but gee, they still aren't the answer no matter how you slice it.
So what you're saying if I understand correctly, is that we should have both terrestrial and space based telescopes? The fossil fuels and the alternative energy systems? The TMT and the James Webb? That's what I believe too. I think space based telescopes are a good idea. We're just not a point where we're ready to have only space based telescopes for astronomical research.
