Re: proved it can do everything that SpaceX has claimed it would be able to do
More like 90% successful. Every critical step in the mission was an ATTEMPT at doing something new with the vehicle. The test was a major step forward in the SpaceX program so overall a success. However, an intact vehicle at the end would have been a bigger success (110%?), unless the actual objective was to maximize views on YouTube.
