Do you suggest that they drop their price when they don't have to? They have a backlog that they are usually way behind on if anything their price point should be higher. And reusing an orbital first stage was first achieved by SpaceX so I would call them revolutionary.

They haven't yet forwarded reusability savings to customers significantly it seems. I agree that it would be smart for them to increase prices purely on a demand basis, but could imagine that they want to save image with the public and their customers.
