    This has generally been opposed at Arianespace because it reduces the amount of work available in the host countries

    That is literally the most foolish statement I have ever read. This attitude will literally make them go bankrupt. The only reason Arianespace still exists is because it’s massively subsidized by the EU, it’s basically a jobs program. What they’re doing is nowhere near competitive with reusable rockets
