And we have had booster spin prime and static fire complete, as of Dec
07 and Dec 09 respectively.

Yes. But what I think is most interesting is not the preparations and the date for the launch of flight 7. It is the pace they are planing for 2025. SpaceX wants to launch 25 Starships in 2025.
They should be ready for the next, Nov-Dec 2026, Mars launch window. I don't know if they will have a payload ready for Mars by then. Maybe they will just
do a demo flight. Even if they just put a Tesla Roadster on Mars (let's hope they don't forget to put a copy of "The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy" and
a towel in the glove compartment) it would signal that others can build stuff
for Mars and know that they can easily find a ride for it.

Do you believe 25 launches next year?-a I'm hearing 8-12 from some pretty close followers.

It is just a number I saw somewhere on the internet.
It's from a quote from Gwen, who usually doesn't go too far into Elon time.-a But still ....
I don't know how likely it is to come true. But I do expect them to be
reusing at least some Super Heavy boosters next year. Once they are
reusing, filling up the tanks for a new launch isn't all that long.
Alain Fournier
Reusing-a boosters will help, but it's still taking about 2 months
between ships.-a Block 2 may get to 1 a month, but still ....
