The fins are vulnerable, for sure. Regardless, the Starship will need control all the way to the surface. I’m not convinced that RCS thrusters will do the job.

Would be cool if a stretchy tile or coating could be created so that when the flaps move, the 'tile' coating surrounding the base of the flaps stretches out then back so there's absolutely no gaps around the flap structure.

C'mon we can fix this!, lol
