I'll bet that creates a rash on the back sides of the NASA folks seeing that Elon didn't have to invest billions to manufacture a special crawler to transport his launch vehicles.

Yeah, but Elon's isn't using 60s technology (his looks like an off-the-shelf modular house mover), and that section of the Starship isn't nearly as big as a fully stacked Saturn V or a ready to launch space shuttle. What surprises me the most is how fast it's moving.
