That's better efficiency. It gets to the blowing up part faster than before

Getting it out of the way so the engineers can enjoy the long weekend.

At this point I'd expect some brain leak from SpaceX. For some, no amount of money is enough to continue to work for a company associated to that toxic twat.

He excels at burning hunks of metal at extremely high temperatures. I thought the Cybertruck was the pinnacle but alas.

Iterations are getting more frequent, which is a good sign, right? Right?
