I could see Musk designing a highly conductive rocket without the design elements to disperse lightning strikes without them arcing through the fuel storage or something because of toxic masculine or stupid reasons

I guess that still wouldn't blow it up though since the rocket fuel still needs oxygen to go boom

    Good thing musk doesn't design rockets other than occasionally blurting out some dumb shit in the company of sycophants that unfortunately have authority over the engineers that actually do the designing.

    Isn't the entire Starship thing a stupid design because of the obsessive use of stainless steel and its particular shape and whatnot? Isn't that a Musk design element forced in?

    But yeah i know he doesn't do any real work, sorry that I implied he does with "musk designing." What i meant by that was less design and more "insert random shit to actively make a design worse"
