Oh btw, I know you don't actually know anything but "microsatellite" is a real term and they're classified as under 100 kg in weight. I didn't even intend this for launching anything prebuilt, simply raw material where one lump sum of 100 tons or 50 doses of 2 tons spread over the day doesn't make a difference. In case you're curious though, the average satellite weight is about 2 tons, but only a quarter of geostationary communication satellites fall into that range, most things AAA Corps would want to launch would be a few times heavier. Although you could just *gasp* assemble it in space.
With a factory that is just magically there somehow, yes. Again, this is not thought through. Your snarkyness only makes you seem like an asshole to boot, so grab some manners or shut it, kid.

As to the arguments against cost effectiveness, it won't be cost effective to be the first company to launch a major project in space
... which is why it won't be coming from a corp. Of course, governments in SR aren'T interested in massive space settlement either, so ... it just won't be happening then.

Seriously, you'll get quite a bit better quality debate if you lose the chip on your shoulder. There's a difference between being a smartass for humor and just being an ass because people don't agree with you.
Space topics seem to attract that sort magically. Some frustrated rocket science nerds who despair about reality not being rocket science wonderland, I guess. Venting frustration that someone disagrees when they want to put it into SR. Of course, the OP who actually wants to write this supplement doesn't want that either, but they conveniently ignore this and hope it'll go away or something.
