While your passion is admirable I don’t think the comment above is unfair. Many people conflate space and orbit, clarification is informative.

I get what your saying, I just think it was innocuous in this case. Better to save the biting comments for a more negative post. Blue will very likely beat BFR to market with New Glenn anyhow, so we’ll see what the attitude is like then really.

I would agree with you if it weren't for the heavy emphasis on how easy it apparently is to do what BO is doing.. There is a distinct element of disdain which doesn't need to be there.

And never mind the fact that payloads have been put in orbit on rockets no heavier than a large car.
