Ok fine time to read the awful document. First off, they imply they don't have to listen to any of the comments because nobody submitted "service copies, certificates of service, or affidavits" but I'm pretty sure that's just for formal petitions to deny. The American Astronomical Society did all of those things for SpaceX's million sat filing and Reflect Orbital, and it was expensive, hard, and it didn't make a fucking difference. So not doing that again.

Oh gosh I don't know if I can actually read this. "The United States is engaged in a race for AI dominance, and as the terrestrial electric grid is overwhelmed by the demands of new data centers this race is now a race for space dominance as well" FUCK THIS OUTRIGHT COLONIALIST DOGSHIT. WOW. "Very little in the record disputes Cowboy Space’s qualifications" HAHAHA that's because you haven't fucking done ANYTHING!!!
