I’d also be interested to understand what Blue Origin’s proposition is?
Does it have a capability advantage over SpaceX? A cost advantage?

A cost advantage?
Over Falcon Heavy? very likely. Over Starship? Probably not.
Capability advantage?
Over Falcon Heavy and Starship? As far as I know, Starship will not have an expendable fairing, nor is a larger payload door a priority and the internal reinforcement cuts into the payload shape, so if you want to launch voluminous payloads, the 7 meter diameter fairing of New Glenn fills that niche.
