IS there better video to count tiles? But judging by integrated test failing tiles is not a big problem now.

For missing tiles, there was a before and after picture posted in the Starship dev thread:

The leaked photos of the flight test ship before breakup didn't show many tiles missing, so it's still possible that the static fire environment is harsher, at least for vibrations, than the actual flight.
