Full reusability makes sense and limits space junk - though the counter to that is they are launching more satellites into space - so probably negate each other

Full reusability makes sense and limits space junk - though the counter to that is they are launching more satellites into space - so probably negate each other to a certain point.
I guess my concern would be who actually has regulatory authority over space and how can they ensure all actors play fairly. I would have to imagine this is a situation that is similar to the tragedy of the commons type scenario.
To be clear - I really don't fall into one side of the camp or the other but I can see how a lot of the waste management side of things can fall by the wayside given our track record on waste cleanup (mines, municipal solid waste, nuclear)
