no, no conflicts of interest here. none. none at all. everything is fine.

In this case there’s really no competition to SpaceX. Hopefully this year Blue Origin and RocketLab displace that dominance though.

I feel like every year since 2020 has been "the year" that competitors are finally supposed to show up. Vulcan and New Glenn have at least finally launched now, but it'll take them years to ramp up to the point of actually being competition to Falcon.
