Falcon 9 has become the most advanced, most reliable, least expensive rocket over the course of a decade. NASA get those capabilities for less than the money that Europe will have spent on Arianne 6. SpaceX only get paid as they can deliver. Europe cover the cost of Arianne 6 development, and will continue to do so. Falcon 9 will likely have up to 100 launches in 2023. Arianne 6 is planned to have at most a dozen launch when it’s matured, which is still several years away
