I agree with this completely, but it´s hard to market without making false promises if it comes out at a later stage (ie. now) that some things require much more than was initially said.

This happens, and I am aware of that, but BOY, that can blow up in our faces.

I am glad that these things are being discussed, but from my POV I would be much happier if from this point we are much more careful with promising things we won´t be able to deliver by April.

We can of course say the potential is there, and work on thát. If 100 TPS is doable, do it. Don´t aim for something that will just collapse and do so much damage to our image.
If 50 TPS is more realistic, do thát. It´s still way better than te competition.

I fear that all the claims will boomerang mercilessly otherwise.

Edit: at the moment I don´t care about Mars or the Moon, but getting a working space elevator.

Edit 2: still positive, but want to get on with realistic things instead of having to make claims that turn out to have a sting for now.
