I'd be surprised if they had that many booster engines fail. I suspect we'll see only a couple of engines fail at most.
I'm less confident about the success of hot staging, since they've never tested it before. Excitement guaranteed though!
Totally! I don't have an engineering reason to think they'll fail, I'm just suspicious after the static fires couldn't maintain 33. A hot staging failure would be MUCH more exciting.
