Let me say it again. BFR DOES NOT COMPETE WITH SLS. FALCON HEAVY
DOES.


It was pointed to me here very often that Falcon Heavy is just a
transitional temporary project and that BFR will replace it.


I hope that SLS is also a transitional temporary project, and that BFR
will replace it. In this ephemeral role, too, Falcon Heavy competes with
SLS.


Agreed. BFR/BFS would actually replace a lot of things. Once the
spaceship part is "crew rated", there is no need for Orion either.
