This is a bizarre accusation to make.

Just because it's not a company you agree with doesn't make this any less of a grassroots/fan project.

Some folks see 3000 data points laying around somewhere and just want to create something fun with it.

What accusation? I literally said it's a fan project. You're agreeing with me. I said it's not "grassroots" because it's a solo project. Grassroots refers to movements/organizations. This distinction is important.

I'm starting to think there is a number of SpaceX/Musk fans on here who fail at basic reading comprehension. I've repeated my point in several ways and all y'all seem to take away from it is "it's not grassroots so it's a paid shill" which is not even in the vicinity of anything I've written (and something I literally clarified I wasn't saying in the comment you replied to).
