Not all, Rocket Lab are also doing great things. I’m just as excited about Neutron as I am about Starship. It will fill an important niche.

Rocket Lab has a tiny rocket and a nice space craft. That's all pretty neat but lets not go over board.

Neutron is less capable then Falcon 9 and likely lower launch rate as well. Its really not comparable to Starship at al.

I love RocketLab but they are not really playing in the same league as of yet and will not for a many years to come.
