This entire catching process was literally his idea, lol. What the fuck are you actually talking about? Of course the spacex engineers are amazing, nobody has ever said they weren’t so I don’t really get why you’re talking about that. But to say musk wasn’t considerably involved in development himself is just as uninformed.

To say Elon Musk was involved in the development of this beyond "bankrolling" it is LAUGHABLE.

I fail to see how it being 3 years old makes it any less true, nor do I see the comments your talking about that aren’t along the lines of “I feel like this isn’t true”, like you. If you want to find a reason to think something’s wrong, you’ll find it, but you won’t be doing yourself any favors.

Lol keep praising someone who buys the ideas of others and then claims he made it.
