They are currently building like 10 other Starship prototypes. Even if this model had worked perfectly, it's unlikely they ever would've flown it again. Remember, SpaceX's goal is to mass produce these. Much better to fail hard now and in many different ways, as the more problems you can find with your expendable prototypes the better (before your manufacturing process starts to ossify).
