Sure, I'll expand.
We both have limited information.
I assume that the professionals at SpaceX and NASA have prioritized safety and usability, while also introducing a sci-fi vibe. This is a reasonable position.
You, however, take a conspiracy theory (the literal definition) angle that SpaceX have reduced the safety and usability of their module in order to look cooler. Do you see why this is not a reasonable position with the information that we have?
- fermienrico 6y ago> while also introducing a sci-fi vibe. This is a reasonable position. I think that's my main grumpy objection. May be I am just old. I also found your dismissal as "conspiracy" a low blow. How can I engage in a productive discussion when the other party dismisses your entire proposition as a conspiracy theory - you don't seem to see any issues with that?
- thelean12 6y agoYou've turned your "grumpy objection" into suggesting that SpaceX is willing to reduce the usability safety of their systems for style. That's a huge jump that I felt should be called out. Maybe conspiracy theory was too harsh, but I stand by heavily calling you out for hatching this idea with minimal evidence beyond "grumpy objections" to a sci-fi vibe.
- Koshkin 6y agoThing is, at a minimum the "vibe" increases the cost, but financial constraints aren't going away, so...
- thelean12 6y agoSays who? Or are you just guessing? You'd also have to ignore the PR benefits, which certainly corresponds to more money down the line.
