      There really is, and you named them. But you forgot about all their legions of anonymous followers who would disparage NASA at their behest to sow baseless discontent.

      I would love to have an ESA jacket to go with my NASA one. I would never discourage a child from expressing interest in either organization, and I certainly would never engender tribalism in them by saying “ESA GOOD NASA BAD” or any inversion or variation thereof.

      There’s already so much of that, why add more?
