My apologies - that was an oversight on my part.

No it doesn't. SpaceX made several changes to the launchpad and supporting structures. Implying that there were zero changes between that launch and the subsequent is not accurate.

SpaceX did make changes to prevent damage to the launch pad in the future, true. I did not mean to suggest otherwise.

My point is that the "mess" the original comment complained about was not a major environmental issue, as they implied, and that it did not prevent subsequent launches from being approved.
