I do't think it is flawed so much as missing the point. The point is to
reduce the cost of access to LEO. Bruce's ideas to me seem well thought out
and practical. It cuts costs and reduces risk which is all that matters.

I agree with you that SSTO will eventually be the solution (at least the
way it looks now). That doesn't preclude other options which cut costs and
reduce risk as stepping stones leading in that direction.
