I also am rooting for the underdog. But the fact of the matter is, once a non-human component is found at fault for a fatal accident, it'll likely set the field back a few years. It's not about betting that he will fail, it's more about doubting that he can achieve the level of safety, by himself.

Given that in the US there is literally no level of safety which will satisfy even 90% of people, it's useful to have a bite-size entrant who can move fast and fail if needed.
