Funny thing, right here on Ars it had been ruled out many times (and downvoted) so I am glad to read that Eric now at least entertains the idea. Maybe it is not likely and yes, maybe the FAA is moving that slowly, but seeing how politics works these days it is something to consider.
Regarding Abbott, make a deal with the devil and at some point you will pay for it. I want to see Starship launch as much as any other rocket fan and it does piss me off the FAA is taking so long, but if SpaceX can finish its Kennedy pad by summer then not much to get in the way of launching and further tests.
