As much as I dislike Musk, I think your argument is a bit of a straw man. He responded to something or someone saying it was possible for $6bn. They stopped responding after Musk said "open books for accounting" or something. The UN shouldn't have responded at all since it wasn't feasible
I still think it's interesting information, and feeding 42 million people for a year is a better deal than funneling that money to people like musk or the DoD.
