I think the quotes you've selected are probably some of the most uninteresting quotes in the whole piece. They certainly don't seem like "the story" to me.
I read it as a story about someone who had a passion to build something that was unconventional, or at least outside of existing support structures, and managed to actually do it. Managed to do it really beautifully and really well.
Why instantly reduce a story about someone doing something so potentially inspiring to a question of its marginal legality?
