so after finally watching the SpaceX feed of the launch instead of the NSF feed... I now definitely have a different opinion as to what happened to B9
it seems like not all of the engines that were supposed to relight to help with the boost back burn actually lit and then the 1s that did light up for the boost back started to shut down in a weird manner... including 1 of the 3 center engines which never shut down in the first place also going down
then it seemed like there might have been an explosion from the engine bay moments before the FTS activated
so it seems the issue was with boost back and may or may not have had anything to do with hot staging

that beast is only 53 feet shorter than the state capital - 397 vs 450.
and it’s a fricking rocket.
They rocket they used 55 years ago to get men on the moon was 363ft tall. The did multiple orbits and recovered the control module 8 miles from midway in their first test flight.
3rd flight of Saturn put men in space. The 5th one put men orbiting the moon. 6th one put men on the moon, just a year and half after the first test flight. Absolutely wild even by 2023 standards.
