That was not the claim, the claim was on the actual space frontier. And in that regard Elon Musk and SpaceX has not achieved anything.
At 4:10 he even praise that SpaceX works on reusability, and call landing the rocket a tremendous achievement.

You are arguing a strawman, the exact problem this video was made to address.

and of course oversaturating LEO, because while they will come down eventually, those dead satellites will stay up there for a decade or more in some cases
