I'll cut this very short, because you people talk out both sides of your mouth.

Can’t you just argue in good faith?

How about this. If you're attempting to "argue in good faith", then try researching something before you write it down. That's probably a good start in "good faith" debate, right? You want to make statements, without researching them, and then get bent out of shape when I call you out on it and say I'm not arguing in good faith.

Like. Do you not see the hypocrisy with that?

How are those relevant?

... YOU BROUGHT UP RUSSIAN CAPSULES. You tell me. Holy hell.

There just seems like there is a huge difference between cleaning an SRB and a fairing

Seems? So, your opinion based on absolutely nothing but a guess is that it seems like it's hard to do. And again, you talk about arguing in good faith when I even told you NASA publishes their SRB refurbishment documentation. Why, if you wanted to argue in good faith, didn't you go look for that document? Surely that's step one in an actual good faith debate, no? Learning about the topic?

I would be happy to be proved wrong though

Then go look at the document. In good faith

Yeah, no. Sure a few other rockets were also partly reusable but that doesn’t make it a copy.

This demonstrates how little you know about the history of vehicles and launch systems. You could do an iota of reading, but instead you're here just saying whatever feels right.

Tell me, do you think Hyper Loop was an original idea or do you think it was a carbon copy of a previously debunked idiotic idea? If Hype Loop was a BS copy of an extremely old idea resurrected by con men every so often, why wouldn't Falcon be? I mean, after all, the name Falcon is awfully close the DARPA's FALCON project, which started just a few years before Elon started hiring people for SpaceX. Everything the guy does is a cheap knock off of something someone else has already done.

Anyway, go ahead and look up those refurbishment documents, since you're so dedicated to good faith debate. Maybe when you're done reading them you'll realize why people that come through here just making up their own answers based on their feelings is annoying.
