But the idea behind doing things with the risk of them going boom is to learn things. I'm not sure they're learning what they need if they're going from testing Starship in launches to going back to static firing. If the idea is to rework the engines for Starship, I have to wonder if that's a fundamental enough step to put the entire project back to pretty much square one.
