> Also if they did bill them NASA would just get the bill and probably marked up. It's a fixed cost contract, while SpaceX might push back on accepting the bill in the first place, they are unlikely to be able to redirect it to NASA if they choose to accept the bill. Of course, I would expect to see this cost reflected in all future contracts they and anyone else signs with NASA.
