Unfortunately, beginners luck it'll probably run even better than
hoped. Then the special insider deals get made, along with sloppy
workmanship kicking in (fear of death if caught whistle-blowing), and
we start with killing off its payload of clowns we call astronauts, as
well as vaporizing launch pads and thoroughly traumatizing most of
everything else within a 10 km radii.
