Why? As in, why does this program still exist? SpaceX is so far ahead, and operates so much more efficiently, what is the point of spending one more hour or dollar on this spacecraft? Why does the USA need two totally different craft of exactly the same capability for exactly the same mission, except one is vastly more proven and less costly than the other?

The government should pay Boeing to shut this down, now, and divert all remaining resources to basic flight research or something else useful to the nation. This is just spending money down a rathole for nothing, AKA SLS.
