I'm sorry, are you comparing the work of NASA back in the 60's to work done now?

NASA never cheered when rockets blew up. NASA never said "the goal is get off the launch pad, anything else is an extra". NASA never launched a rocket without a flame diverter, causing them to utterly obliterate a launch pad. NASA didn't just blow up rockets all the frigging time just to test them. NASA did everything with rulers or at best computers that had the power of a basic calculator. NASA didn't have the advancements in computers, new materials,new technologies.

NASA also didnt have to deal with a man baby con man

I'm sorry, but this is a very bad comparison
