I have to agree, I think this is really only a notch or 2 above a wind
tunnel experiment that went well.

Bingo! That is exactly what it is intended to be. We don't have wind
tunnels that can do Mach 9, or they would have done this test, and many
more, in the wind tunnel.

Point is, they have an engine that does function with internal supersonic
flow. Now they can think about scaling it up to make it useful.
