The original point - almost. :) The original point was whether or not the moon
lander could have been built in a similar amount of time if NASA had replaced
its crew halfway through the project. :)

Obviously, the DB team was a bit smaller so each person played a much more
substantial role, and would probably be harder to replace. Could Hsu have been
replaced by another person or group of people? Let's find out in some other
thread (we have too many here, and if we could condense our discussion to one or
two it would be easier to handle :).
