My downvote was triggered by calling reusability a business mistake which I find ridiculous. It drives prices down (new business), beats competition (gain market share) while creating a positive precedent (less waste).

i disagree with the less waste argument. there is clearly a rebound effect here: by making the price cheaper and significantly increasing the mass that goes to orbit you eventually generate more waste.
