The telescope could have cost umpteen trillions of dollars and that fact alone would not support your claim that EHT cost billions of dollars.
I’m not sure how to understand the fact that the previous statement is obvious and yet you still made your comments. I feel like the most charitable interpretation that I can come up with still does not leave a good impression of your overall argument.
I’m not harping on this apparent mistake for no reason. It’s just that of all the things described by gjm this seems like it might be the easiest to explicate.
