> Also, If they try to catch the booster on the next launch (November?) it will make such a mess that they will be delayed for a long long time (compared to the time between the first few launches). It might even mean the end of the program.

They've already built a second tower in Texas, with at least another two more planned for Florida. Seems they're making quite a few revisions / improvements to the launch stand and flame diverter for tower 2 as well.

Seems like SpaceX understands, organizationally, that there's always another revision in the works, and failure is a necessary opportunity for learning and applying what you've learned to the next revision. Falcon 9's record seems to show this as has Starship's evolution.
