A comment on James Webb is fully deployed. Parent comment
NASA is a government agency, which makes what it does ultimately political.
In a political "economy", the return on investments is mainly PR. Politicians aim to get voter sympathy in return for investing $B in NASA.
And voters won't much care if you put up 3 JWSTs or 1.
