So far the SpaceX Starship solution seems to be commercially available cranes, commercially available "roll lifts" (flat beds with a lot of independently controlled wheels [1]), and simple launch sites that don't move around on land.
I have to imagine that SpaceX's solution is orders of magnitude cheaper than maintaining this giant custom vehicle NASA made.
