What I'm trying to say is that there is a connection between the money invested and the quality of the result. SpaceX starship programs several times cheaper than the NASA Apollo program, but keeps failing. At the end of it, it will probably cost the same for a successful launch.
You realise NASA isn't paying for the development of Starship, yes? If spacex doesn't get it working on budget, it's spacex who's paying for it, not NASA.
The space shuttle disagrees with you.
