xp the old system led to a lot of confusion, which is why most modern agencies now conduct contract acquisition via a voice vote, with everyone working on the same floor as the cube where the formal bid was emailed getting a say in the decision during an optional meeting held during the lunch hour on fridays

I'm not a space guy, but the reporting on this seems extraordinarily deranged to me
NYT: "The most powerful rocket ever built got off the launchpad in South Texas, but did not achieve its most ambitious goals on Thursday."
"However, SpaceX has a history of learning from mistakes. The company’s mantra is essentially, “Fail fast, but learn faster.”Traditional aerospace companies have tried to anticipate and prevent as many failures as possible ahead of time. But that approach takes money and time and can lead to vehicles that are overdesigned. SpaceX instead is more like a Silicon Valley software company — starting with an imperfect product that can be improved quickly....SpaceX, as one of the most valuable privately held companies, possesses a large financial cushion to absorb setbacks, unlike its early days when the first three launches of its original rocket, the small Falcon 1, failed to reach orbit. Mr. Musk scraped together just enough money and parts for a fourth launch attempt. Had it failed, SpaceX would have gone out of business.It succeeded, and SpaceX has succeeded in almost all of its endeavors since then, even when it sometimes fails at first.

"successful launch, just some minor sky detritus"
tons of Musk-ites complaining about the lack of nuance in the reporting on the 'explosion', when just about every article I've read expressed what happened pretty accurately and that this was always known as an expected outcome.
