You made the general statement, "The utility of a blunt trailing edge is obvious for hypersonic vehicles... the edge isn't thin,..." And I made the general reply, but really should have made it more with respect to air-breathing powered hypersonic vehicles where they spend a lot more time in the atmosphere and drag can be a real concern. Especially at the powered transonic pinch point because of lack of excess thrust.My bad for being so general.
