Henry:

To first order and to date, stuff that goes to orbit costs about four
orders of magnitude more than subsonic stuff, per pound.

SpaceX has pulled about half an order of magnitude out of that, leaving
the difference—in their case only—at almost exactly four orders of
magnitude.

That obviously is projection ( by SpaceX ), right?
... after things run smoothly?
