Yes just like that.

If it was clear that building such a system would have sufficient demand, and if the government itself did not already build such a system, than you would likely get sufficient private investment to create such a system.

Of course it isn't and wasn't clear that there would be sufficient demand (in terms of dollars, not just people who would use the system if its free), and of course the feds have already built such a system. Either fact by itself is enough to explain the lack of a private interstate system.
