As for XCOR's non-coking kerosene tech, not magic, just one of a lot of areas where they applied clever lateral thinking to a common problem.

No surprise there... but it doesn't change the bottom line. Whether you call it magic or clever lateral thinking, it's something that someone else with a desire for non-coking kerosene can't necessarily duplicate on command. So it's not a convincing argument for why people shouldn't worry about the issue.
