Not being a rocket scientist, I guess that makes sense in general, but to
John's point, it doesn't seem like a great idea when you are increasing
complexity in a system that is somewhat prone to blowing up.

In any case, I wish them a lot of success with the launch and am excited
about the prospect of a rocket with that much power coming back into the
space exploration toolkit.
