Only if colonising other planets is easy, which there is no reason to believe it will be.

We just don't have the technology to massively change a planets ecosystem to be habitable and the amount of resources to build a life dome is just absurd.

It's nice to go outside sometimes but I don't do it often. Worst bit would be some luxuries. Mostly food variety and ingredients.

We don't need full on domes; pressurized buildings would be enough. But if we can populate other planets we can populate the unpopulated parts of Earth.

With the current resources we have I feel it would be prudent to stay underground rather than build mega structures on ground.
