"No one will be able to compete with the Raptor engine. It outclasses everything."

After they get the motor certified they'll have to certify a rocket. That's a whole 'nuther ball game.

They can get by on a lot of things for commercial-only lift. But when they step up to cert on National Security and/or manned flight it's a much more expensive proposition. And it take a long damn time.
