People are hyperventilating about this. It is a new ship, with millions of components, more than a few making their debut.

I would be astonished beyond belief if it DIDN’T have teething problems.

The M-1 Abrams tank was the worst government boondoggle of the military industrial concept ever conceived and would have Soviet tanks crushing their dead carcasses under their treads.

Funny how that turned out.
