There's a lot more than what AutoTL;DR reported. The article is by Stephen Clark, who now swaps out with Eric Berger on the weekly roundup article for ArsTechnica.

Yeah this is a really nice article. It’s easy to make fun of Boeing, but valves really are tricky in these conditions. Key is to be able to iterate quickly, and it sounds like NASA is happy with SpaceX in that regard.
