This is a terrific illustration of comparative advantage and economies of scale.

If Europe and America could trade with trust, Europe could put these resources into space missions. (Or solar panels. Whatever.) SpaceX, meanwhile, would have more resources with which to scale Starship.

Instead we have inefficient duplication and diseconomies of scale. All so…idk, the Italians stop taking advantage of America...
