That's probably not a huge deal ultimately. Being able to get things into orbits very cheaply will make the dV cost of inclination changes much easier to bear because you don't have to haul all that fuel to orbit on your initial launch any more. Also how many different inclinations are actually required to serve 90-95% of all launches? There's really only a handful of inclination 'classes' out there that would need to be fulfilled; 0 for geostationary, 51.6 for ISS (assuming it's still up when we build the loop), 80-90 for various Earth observation and communication satellites. If we can super cheaply launch satellites into a couple defined inclinations most customers would probably be able to make do with one of these common inclinations rather than today where they'd go with the perfect one.
