It would take a lot to make Mars more habitable than Earth. This isn't about colonisation this is simply that it's cool to build rockets.

Yeah, it's easier to terraform ... Planet Earth!

It's the only planet we can terraform (As in repairing some of the damage we've done), we are nowhere near able to terraform Mars, not even theoretically and disregarding cost.
Maybe in a century we can. But only maybe.
