    Selective quoting is basically lying.

    The first, dubbed IS-29e, failed due to a propulsion system fuel leak. Intelsat declared the satellite a total loss in April 2019, later attributing it to either a micrometeoroid strike or solar weather activity.

    With the context of the quote, I"m curious what the pattern you’ve identified is.
