The best part about the BBC Micro was its RS423 serial port, as they used a DIN plug with 4-way rotational symmetry.
It's currently scheduled for no earlier than Oct 31st 2021.
However, NASA is waiting for ArianeSpace to resolve an issue with fairing separation on the Ariane 5 rocket JWST is booked to ride on. Ariane hasn't launched since August.
The absolute worst version was the implementation of RS485 on the BBC Micro.
The problem was that instead of the usual 5 pins spaced around 180 degrees of the connector face, they specced the X version with a central pin and the remaining 4 spaced every 90 degrees, giving the connector 4-way rotational symmetry!

Biden has already done this:-
"Presidential memorandum: Withdraw the Trump administration's regulatory process executive order to remove needless obstacles to regulating in the public's interest
Issue a regulatory freeze to pause any new regulations from moving forward and give the Biden administration an opportunity to review any Trump administration regulations"
