Perhaps even more embarrassing than the press kit (https://www.blueorigin.com/missions/ng-3) having one orbital inclination in the text and completely different one in the map below it.
The Falcon 9 has been launched 640 times with 637 mission successes (one of which was successfully delivered one payload, but not it's second). This does not include one pre-flight failure. The operational success of the Falcon 9 is nothing short of amazing. It's chasing the R-7 family (Soyuz-U, Kosmos-3M, Proton) at over 1800 launches. The R-7 has an estimated success rate of 97% which is amazing giving the technology at the time it was designed.
You appear to be wrong if you are talking about Falcon 9. Falcon 9 was reliable until launch 19
There isn't any launch platform with no failures, ever, that's not how you measure reliability. Reliability is measured on percentage of successful launches (payload reached target orbit), and Falcon 9 is, indeed, the most reliable orbital launch vehicle ever, by a wide margin. Here are the platforms with >= 100 launches (the 100-launch line is kind of arbitrary, but you have to draw a line somewhere and platforms with very few launches don't have meaningful statistics):

The whole BS Blue Origin has been peddling is that they're taking longer to do things because they do more thorough checks than SpaceX.
SpaceX blew up a lot of stuff before Falcon became reliable.
To their credit, it has become the most reliable launch platform ever implemented.
The Falcon 1 had 5 launches and 3 failures.
Now Starship.
