I don’t think it has sunk in for many people that SpaceX is the freight company for space.

My point is that it's still costly freight. You need to have a really good reason to spend $15,000 a kilogram to LEO. That's why the launch market isn't growing/may be shrinking. That's a problem that needs to be solved. Starlink, Kuiper, OneWeb etc are intended to change that.
I’m aware of Bezos (maybe more than most people even). Blue Origin might even win. And I’ll call Blue Origin a freight company when it is shipping freight. Until then, it’s an impressive/promising R&D lab.I didn't say it was cheap. I just said it's a freight company, which a lot of non-logistics people don't realize.

Agree. I was adding something else that most people don't realize. Launch TAM isn't growing. SpaceX has so much market share the number of Falcons that will go up this year may be less than last year. The goal now is more payloads justifying that still high cost to orbit/beyond.
