If I say "I need this bridge to support 1000 pounds with the least amount of material you can manage", we do not first have to have a discussion about whether that was a _good_ idea to specify. The engineering to meet it can be objectively judged. That is the difference.

So I do not think there is actually any subjectivity at all in saying that the engineering behind Space-X is far superior to the engineering behind anything Facebook has ever done, because it has nothing to do with whether it was _worth_ doing, it's whether it was _hard_.
