I'm a home bicycle mechanic, and all manufacturers of bike components do this.
Seeing this, I could imagine birds using the strategy you describe.
I am one. I limit my personal carbon footprint. I do not own a car (and hopefully never will). I rarely eat meat. I live in a cheap, inefficient apartment because I'm living on a student income, but I keep the heat low to try to limit my energy consumption.
I probably won't have kids, because it wouldn't be consistent with my concerns about climate change to bring another high-consuming American into the world.

It's exciting to see BO making progress on their campaign to catch SpaceX in the commercial launch space. I'm curious whether the slow, deliberative approach they show here will pay off in reliability, ability to scale, etc once they start putting kgs in orbit.
