How about researching some facts before you try to demonstrate your wisdom?

"Likely to spall the surface of standard airfield concrete on the first VL."

These specs are current, landing pads are being built to them, and to date the F-35B has not been observed doing VL on any surface except such pads, concrete shielded by AM-2, or ship decks.
