It has to be this way. All commercial craft will be drone style heavy lifters able to launch at up to six gs at least and leaping halfway around the earth in an hour. No human lives involved or ever planned until years of operational success.
And just who wants to be launched a six gs? It already is working and we need to get on with it. Those thirty engines can be set out in a larger ring shell to increase the casing to hold ten times the original volume. Many more engines can also be added.
And suddenly we are lifting 70 tons already and expansion can take this to a 1000 tons using a ten fold volume expansion. The best design approach is the one which is working and launch and crash works well..
Sending 68 tons from India to New york every day in two hours is potentially very useful.
This is full speed ahead and no one can catch us.
Legislation Submitted to Get Commercial Space Transportation Approvals Out of the FAA

The bill streamlines the oversight process by moving the Office of Commercial Space Transportation (AST) out from under the FAA and requiring AST to report directly to the Secretary of Transportation. This eliminates the middleman in the reporting process and enables AST to keep pace with a rapidly growing industry.
