Pretty sure they actually did successfully do a half thrust test and it was acceptable.

I'm like 80% sure it was at least half.

They had no idea how bad it would fail given that test.

Edit ya there it is, half thrust. https://www.axios.com/2023/04/28/faa-spacex-starship-investigation-explosive-test-flight
