I agree, that line jumped out at me. They need the chopstick contraption, it isn’t available worldwide!

The booster needs chopsticks, but the Starship payload (theoretically as it hasn’t happened yet) does not.
The current version of it does, it only has catch pins, no landing legs.
Good luck not getting shot down during a mostly ballistic trajectory.
