How space people see this Starship explosion (impressed it got off the pad, interested to see how design changes now) is wildly different from how everyone else sees it (wow, huge failure, bad that a rocket exploded)

Agreed, as the commnetary said it was a test launch it was successful as it got off the launch pad, the fact it lasted 4 minuites is probably a bonus success. It is case now of analysing the data and building version 2, then having another go.
Oddly compared to Virgin One, which also failed, the company beind that has gone bust putting lots of jobs at risk, those employees will probably be snapped up by other companies linked to NASA. ESA, SpaceX.
