Well, as a hideously overpaid contractor myself I can't disagree but NASA will never allow a manned spaceflight from a commercial outfit where they weren't able to see every nook and cranny of the design and build process.

You're right about that - LOL. They own space and won't let anyone forget it (at least from a US perspective).

Everyone has flaws ... delays ... limitations. I'm happy to see the commercial aspect going full bore though. I think that probably is the future of spaceflight. The government mismanages so much, plus they overpay their contractors for services a commercial outfit can do more efficiently and cheaper. But that's just my opinion.
