“There should have been an American flag emblazoned on its fuselage. “

That wouldn’t be PC. It would also be rasis.

That is some amazing materials and aerodynamics work for the legs to take that kind of heat under the dynamic loading conditions of a landing

This is an amazing guidance and control capability.

I can’t imagine it’s use, as it requires so much propellant weight to first boost and then land the craft.
It would effectively cut the throw weight of the vehicle in half.
