In all seriousness, why would any country try to make any "secret" deal with Elon (SpaceX likely being a single exception since SpaceX surviving aligns with his personal goals) knowing that he will likely just blab about it.
Making matters worse, couldn't he just make shit up at this point and it sounds reasonable enough that a government may try something like this?
