Recovering and reusing something that went up and down

And something that went orbital at supersonic speed

Is not even remotely the same universe

McDonell Douglas have done up and down since 1992

SpaceX is the only entity that have recovered and reused any rocket parts after sending payloads orbital

Wake me up when someone have done even a test that resembles orbital recovery

Until then all the EDS in here has zero power over reality

This is not true. Say what you will about the Shuttle, but they definitely recovered and reused rocket parts from both the boosters and the orbiter.
