If you build such a capability on purpose you don’t have to hope you’ll be able to adapt a nebulous “positive externality” of some other system.

- samatman 7y agoI don't think a purpose-built capability is anywhere near as good. It would be a massive drain on the economy that chose to maintain it, there's no guarantee it would actually work when the time came, and it wouldn't benefit from improvements in design over time. Being profitable, Starship has none of these limitations.
