This is the company that released a video of a bunch of their rockets exploding, "How not to land an orbital rocket booster". They are usually pretty open with their failures, at least in engineering. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bvim4rsNHkQ

I guess I didn't specify that "failure of an experimental rocket for a company developing new rockets" is a different category than "failure of workplace safety procedures that permanently disables a family man"

I thought the difference was clear

the difference is clear to be sure, just pointing out that at least in engineering, they have never been shy to publicize their failures, and use them to improve processes. I would hope that that attitude would apply equally to safety, but it seems like it does not.
