171.  Nonsense. Mass can ONLY be ejected from part B
Parts A and C are the intact bottom and top sections at any point in time -- part B is the debris -- and the "mass shedding" that Bazant considers does get subtracted from the kinetic energy.

I'll make one more attempt in the other subthread to explain why your other points are either invalid or irrelevant to Bazant's conclusion.
