Thank you for this point.
My mention of “we” though are the consumers who will be paying these companies for rides and presuming they have already thought about these safety issues, yet “we” have no privvy to an understanding about who has approached the issues nor who has the best approach and neither a standard to refer to that “we” can expect the companies to uphold.
That’s the whole point of “us” starting to ask questions.
“So, uh, you want me to fly in your plane, to what standards are these planes built to?”
Oh look, “we” have an FAA who manages all that, regardless of who made the damn plane.
