The "Sr. Vice President of Production and Launch" at SpaceX has also just departed from SpaceX. Berger writes in the piece below that "[t]he timing is not great, with the most important launch of SpaceX's history looming on May 27, a crewed flight of the Dragon spacecraft."

For the spacex engineer my first thought is not that he has something to hide but that he is taking on a new challenge with potentially much larger returns for him personally if relativity scales up than being part of the by now huge spacex team. Also the 3d printed approach is i think just an interesting challenge in itself :)
