Falcon’s costs are a fiction.

SpaceX benefits from massive taxpayer support and uses facilities built by the military and NASA.

It’s not a like for like comparison especially give SpaceX keeping its books private and giving no clear public indication of how reusable its rockets really are or their refurb cost.

Given Musks history of creative accounting quoting their PR numbers, the ones they pitch congress, as facts is naive in the extreme.
