Re: Missing the point...

Musk has many adoring fan-boys. Some disturbingly so, not that there's anything wrong with that... You can tell by the way that they leap to his defence, even when a particular, often narrow, criticism is perfectly valid. They should give their heads a shake; it's unhealthy and counterproductive to the greater good.

Face facts. Elon Musk's SpaceX couldn't get a video back from a barge parked off shore, even if their life depended on it. They've obviously spent a lot of money trying, repeatedly. But the video cuts out every single time. That's called a 'FAIL'.

It's not about the video itself. It's about the repeated failures. It's a clear sign that the organization is immature and hasn't implemented all the processes they should have.
