Yes, this is my point. It’s marketing. I was taught not to wallow in my failures, but not to celebrate them either when I’m trying to reach a larger goal. There’s no success in failure, that’s an oxymoron,. You can learn things from failure, but it’s not a success never.

Of course there’s success in failure. If you need 10 things to work right, and you can't verify all 10 things at once (because they need to happen in sequence), but you make it step by step, then it's a success. If you can verify not one but multiple things in a single test, that'd be a big success. If all 10 things work then it's a total success. And if you can repeat the test 10 times, then you have a home run, especially for something as groundbreaking as Starship.

Why is it so difficult to understand? I'm sure you know the odd of 10 things failing is not 10 times of a single failure, but much higher.
