I think that article might be a bit disingenuous. Elon Musk didn't say that in response to the Antares explosion, he said it several years earlier, and the part that's quoted is pretty accurate to be fair.
When a failure does happen, nobody goes around celebrating it, whether they're competitors or not, and honestly I believe that includes Elon Musk. I believe that on a human level, but even on a business level it's bad, because it reduces public faith in space transportation generally. Nobody likes to see this happen.
