I'm not sold on them achieving partial reusability in practice in 9 launches (assuming that the 9 launches happen mainly this year as they have requested). I think they'll have achieved it in theory (ie demonstrated a hover landing of the booster over water), but they've only just started to build out the second tower that'll be needed to actually test reusability without risking the entire launch infrastructure. Between the construction pauses during testing/launch, and things they can't really speed up like concrete hardening times, I don't think they'll be able to both have 9 flights AND operationalize the second tower this year.
