I mostly agree but I don't think you can rationalize away not having ANY flame suppression/protection on one of the biggest rockets ever built. Yeah the launch was a "success" in terms of testing and data acquisition but it was disastrous and reckless in terms of safety mitigation and I don't agree with the rationale that you put forward.
