Huge snub of Elon Musk's xAI. OpenAI is basically anti-Trump yet he still went with them. Says a lot about Trump and Musk.

Only if it was the one and only contract…

Governments usually have multiple, SpaceX is the biggest NASA one but is one of many.

I'm not sure I'd call it that, but if so, that's interesting. My criticism of Trump and Musk is that they are more faithful to the interests of Russia than the US. Snubbing Musk's stuff, in that light, would be entirely appropriate. The military has surely seen what happened when DOGE got access to computer systems and then immediately the systems were opened to Russian IPs. The military might well have an opinion on the merits of that scenario.
