See my above comment, you and a bunch of other commenters are making wildly incorrect assumptions about a huge list of things.
It might surprise you that the Engineers running the current leader in space flight (tonnage to orbit, reliability, reusability, cost, pick your metric) aren't complete idiots.

The debris very likely damaged the rocket engines, that is not something they can tolerate for more tests. This kind of infrastructure isn't built quickly, so if it is needed they should have started building it somewhere 1-2 years ago instead of deciding to try it without it. Because if they need it now, this slows down development significantly as they have to built it starting from now.
