My stance on SpaceX has always been the same as my stance on government restoration ecology projects: it's *incredibly* good that such projects are happening at all, they should keep happening, but preferably minus the mildly enlightened tyrants at the top.
For some reason, these things don't happen without such mildly enlightened tyrants. It is almost as if the universe would lack a natural inclination to change itself for the better.
