Even more retarded than that. Even if you completely set aside distance, Mats is a pipe dream to sell to idiots.
Why?
Because Mars has no magnetic dynamo. Molten core in layman's terms. The metal core of the planet is cold. What holds our atmosphere in place? Our magnetic dynamo.
The new atmosphere would not decay for a long time. If you had some way to generate atmosphere at all, at any rate (let's call this "magic") you would be able to maintain it indefinitely with the same "magic". Probably not even running continuously, you'd just give it periodic refills like you charge your car AC.

Mars is unlivable unless you invent magic.

It's not about how fast it decays, it's that it does so st all. Unfixable radiation hazard right there.
