Assume you are working on a P/L.

On one hand you have a company you are spending sixty percent of your budget with, and their product can only be used once.
On the other hand, you have a company you spending forty percent of your budget with and their product can be re-used.

That's ULV vs Space X and the US government.

Government by nature is unwieldy & inefficient.

This is what's going to be wild. The day they can land the booster, then land the starship the same way.
