Original Note:
Musk did not say V1 was 50 tons but Flight 3 specifically. This implies that the payload was penalised by a non full prop load and performance decrease for that specific flight. SpaceX is profitable and has been for a while. Contracts are not Venture Capital either https://www.wsj.com/tech/behind-the-curtain-of-elon-musks-secretive-spacex-revenue-growth-and-rising-costs-2c828e2b#
