Commoditizing space brings a lot of issues, I'll agree on that.

But if you don't see how it is an environmental one... well I don't know how I can help. And I mean that honestly. I see a lot of comments about SpaceX where people seem to genuinely think that it is "helping the human species". And I just don't see what to say against that... it's just pure faith to me.

To me, regarding SpaceX it sounds like engineers saying "if you keep walking one step after the other for long enough, then you'll reach the Moon" and then focusing really hard on the next steps. And if someone says "well if you keep walking you'll surely stay on Earth", they answer "He has a plan, someday a solution will come".
