I mean, yeah, I wasn't in the room when the Space Shuttle was built. I don't know the "surprising level of detail" involved. I guess it's a round-about way of saying, "I'd like to know what those details were to understand why having to desolder burnt-out bulbs is better than using a spring-loaded, locking fitting."
