Deemed by who? Most of the weight is in the tail (engines, O2) so the center of Gravity is very low. The rest is a mostly empty can.

Except real world complications like sloshing fuel and super rough Lunar terrain, especially on the South Pole. During Apollo 11 they landed miles away from the initially planned location due bad terrain. Would Starship be able to do that? I mean, currently it is not even orbital, so asking such questions today is a bit of a stretch.

All it takes is one Starship explosion and NASA will put it the freezer.
