Did you read the article?

Yes. If they were quoting Nasa saying "We needed this win," I would stand corrected. But nope. It's BI using the term "win."

Let me know if I have to repeat myself again.

Itโ€™s not clickbait, itโ€™s language.

They have an entire section on this and explain it, it isnโ€™t really hyperbole.

Had they not mentioned or explained the language they used then Iโ€™d agree.
