Let my try and distill that. SpaceX is capable of doing some good work, when Elon leaves them alone.
Remember, Starship is Elon's napkin drawing idea of making a big cheap steel tube. Bigger and bader than everyone else! For a mission that doesn't exist, which it's not even designed properly for. Starship is 100% Elon's blunder and he's made so many insane promises for it that it's dragging SpaceX down.
Starship is SpaceX's Cybertruck.
