I don't blame him. They're all space flight nerds, whether for Boeing or for SpaceX. I'm sure some of the spacex people watched the starliner flight too

Definitely. I feel like most people have mutual respect and admiration for each others craft. (And they're all spaceflight nerds, as you say.)

Starliner was in orbit and he's goofing off, maybe wishing he worked for the competition.
