A serious reply to a serious theme. I will try to explain something...
"...the arguments are for von Braun's role being overestimated..."
The accusations aren't really new. The story goes like this, less or more: Von Braun wasn't really a good engineer. Not in the Third Reich and not in the U.S. The real work AKA good/real engineering was done by other guys. He was a good looking guy which had a "einnehmendes Wesen". Hard or impossible to translate. More a kind of a good project manager. He convinced JFK to go to the moon. But he also managed the V-weapons . This job wasn't really good. See Peenemünde for an entry point for the whole story. You will find out how many died for this useless crap.
