I think the problem here is that there’s willful recklessness buried in the risk taking. It’s like running a shady skydiving operation and being like “yeah, the professionals are full of it and just want my money, you don’t really have to repack the chutes carefully, just stuff that shit in there, it’ll be fine. Trust me bro, it’s worked for me, like, five times.”
With Everest, there is a huge amount of risk management. Same with Parachuting.
With this maybe slightly less. That being said, if I found out the CEO was going to be piloting it, I’d assume it’s safe. However, then again, there was the Rob Hall and Everest Incident too (but I feel like that was less preventable on Rob’s side)

I do tend to agree actually…
