Yep, pretty much every rocket is much much cheaper than the often one-off launch infrastructure.
From what i remeber some Soviet rockets had after a string of pad destroing failures any abort commands disablee for the first 30 seconds of flight - regardless of what happens, it must not hit the pad, or Barmin (the chief designer of most Soviet launch complexes) will be angry and you don't want that.
