The financial argument is valid but nobody wants to pay money for a service they would want and then receive an email saying we can't provide it because "Indian goverment deemed it so". One scenario is the government doesn't communicate with the public and then Space-X doesn't get its license. Telling people to be cautious is okay. And anyways if Space-X has enough capacity, pre-orders shouldn't matter.
There's nuance here and sound policy lies on a spectrum between fully free trade and protectionism. Free trade in services without free movement of people is nonsense in my opinion. It almost always benefits the incumbent.
