Now I'm imagining bits of the sail bulging out of the rocket fairing like a hastily-packed sleeping bag at the end of a camping trip.
After decades of camping, I only recently found out most (modern) sleeping bags are actually meant to be stuffed in their bags, not rolled up. Just kinda keep stuffing it in there and they seem to naturally fill gaps better than if they were rolled up first, so they're easier and much faster to pack away.
There's a random LPT for ya.
Huh, TIL. Thanks!
