This has been going on for at least two years.

I understood they were going to use a different formulation of concrete like that used in blast furnaces.

Rather than cosmetic, flying concrete at the velocities involved could be enough to cause a catastrophic failure of the vehicle at launch.

A Raptor engine was destroyed in precisely this way two years ago.
