Yet, you repeatedly denied that we had given you pointers to that
data.

I'm not accepting it as valid data.

I know, you only accept data that comes from polling a single person. Your wife.

It's still dishonest to claim no one has given you data.

you have to cover the $30m initial input. Which requires in the
region of 150 flights for an individual vehicle. Obviously, the
question then is what the onward cost of the additional vehicles
are.

Why would you design a vehicle to last for only 150 flights?

I expect Armadillo, with their fast evolutionary vehicle development
approach, would want to be designing for early obsolescence of this
order, though individual components might be used beyond this. With
market and technological maturity, it might become otherwise, in due
course.
