## Analysis

Seven of 8 agents with actual research agree on the core facts: V3 hasn't flown, tight timeline, multiple sequential successes needed. The well-researched agents cluster 20-42% with median ~32%. Agent 1 (50%) had zero research and is discarded. The critical path requires Flight 12 success → ocean landing → Flight 13 success → ocean landing → catch attempt, all in ~8 months. With ~50% Ship landing success rate historically, probability of the full chain completing is low. The announcement-only criteria provides some uplift but Musk is unlikely to declare full reusability without at least a successful catch. Market at 39.5% appears 6-7 points too high relative to evidence. Edge of ~6.5% with moderate confidence warrants a TRADE_NO position.

## Key Evidence

V3 hasn't flown yet as of March 2026; only 1 of 2 required ocean landings completed; ~50% Ship landing success rate means sequential success chain in 8 months is unlikely even with announcement-only resolution criteria

## Risks

Musk could announce 'fully reusable' based on a lower threshold than expected (e.g., after ocean landing demonstrations without actual tower catch), or SpaceX could dramatically accelerate flight cadence with V3
