SpaceX would recreate a popular image showing a wildly outdated lack of workplace safety.

Huh? They are all wearing harnesses and the middle guy is where you can see they are clipped in.

Maybe read the comment again? I didn't say SpaceX was the one showing the lack of workplace safety, I said they're recreating an image that did, and in so doing are glorifying an age when workplace safety just didn't exist.

lol, nobody is “glorifying” lack of workplace safety. If anything, both images are intended to glorify human achievement.

Maybe you should have phrased it "that showed" instead. That would have made it a little clearer.
