Elon will, sometime very soon, in the spirit for turning a "loop" under Las Vegas into a tunnel with normal cars in it, or deciding that wheels are the way to go for a hyperloop, decide that the thing to do with Starship is to land it on wheels,like a plane, on a runway, which is a lot more profound than it sounds. To facilitate that, it will need some wings, which Elon will invent.. To deal with the extra weight, some SLRBs would be added, very radically reinventing the whole science of rocketry. (I used to include discussion of heat tiles to this, but I see he's already doing that.) Anyway, cap this, Elon will eventually proudly reinvent the shuttles and claim it's a revolutionary advance.
