I wonder whether there' a reason behind all of this that they absolutely cannot share, perhaps related to the challanges and delays they experienced with the environmental assessment in '22? Maybe that they calculated they'd be better overall taking the hit on the pad in the short term and just getting that (already superceded) rocket launched, rather than opting for yet more bureaucratic delays?
(Total speculation, of course)
