Yes, people seem to forget that SpaceX's long term plans are so for nothing but a vision and they're pretty far away from achieving their goals. They do have an excellent technology roadmap, but they still do need to execute on it. The Orion space craft is the only current deep space capable manned spacecraft that has flown to space and returned. Meanwhile the Dragon v2 has only completed a launch abort test and will initially serve low earth orbit only (it's designed to be upgraded to deep space capable, but this is years away). The Falcon Heavy and SLS rockets are both still development programs, and by the current schedule, the FH will fly (probably a satellite payload) only a year earlier than the SLS (which will fly with the Orion). The SLS has higher payload (70 vs. 55 metric tons) too. The SpaceX Interplanetary Transport System is just a visionary roadmap at this point and should be treated as such. They've only completed the first (but important) baby steps with the Raptor engine tests and composite tank manufacturing so far. SpaceX is doing a very good job, but the SLS + Orion program is a long way ahead of them if their schedules hold.
