It needs to be remembered that Starship is the high risk approach (my blog of 12 August 2021). There will be failures.

An integrated intelligent traffic management system NOT simple f.s.d.
The environment needs to be automated too, with roadway navigation beacons, digital traffic signs and signals, smart traffic lights, etc. so as to monitor and then control vehicle traffic.

Infrequent but important
During neural network training the impact of rarely occurring training examples* can suffer "dilution" as compared to more frequently occurring examples. They can get "averaged out". When such uncommon examples are important* one can/should artificially increase the number of times the ANN/LLM sees these during its training. I.e., frequency of training exposure should be weighted by example importance/value. I've employed this technique since my earliest work with ANNs.
* A key example would be dangerous scenarios during level 5 vehicle autonomy.

One robot's ontology
At a conference someone well versed in g.o.f.a.i. asked me what A.s.a. H.'s ontology was. I answered that it was something like the diagram presented in my blog of 4 September 2024. (Including some nodes/patterns/concepts that may go unnamed.)
An economical space launch system
A fully reusable launcher might not be the most economical launcher. At least for certain size payloads. See my blog of 1 January 2025.
