Yup -- that's the sort of thing that would be skipped in the rush. What would the odds be that a bad part would show up? Directly proportional to the importance of the mission!

Another reason that when we pick up ours, I'd like to spend at least 4 to 6 weeks hanging out close to the factory with the expressed intent of trying to break as many of the parts as I can. That's why they call it "shakedown".

Any news on whether they got it running for the CW testers?
