The low build rate is a consequence of success not an indicator of failure. Falcon 9 gets 30+ flights per core, you don’t need to build 60+ rockets.

The point is once PRC figures out reusables and operates a 100/200/300 fleet of reusables, is SpaceX which is more or less entire American space industrial base able to match. Or it it going to go the way of EV or any other PRC high capacity industry where US can't.
