Blue Origin really does move at a glacial pace, but I do have a higher confidence in their launches than SpaceX. They seem to do things much more methodically.
Not to imply that their development method is better, obviously SpaceX is more successful by virtually every count.
They’d better have a higher chance of success, because that’s how their design process is supposed to work. They already shifted the goalposts themselves by saying landing isn’t a certainty.
A successful first launch can be done. SLS and Vulcan both did it (after countless delays and scrubs).
