But adding in air conditioning adds a bunch more complexity. Same applies here, you already have a rocket engine and all its controls so adding a little more fuel is trivial. Adding a secondary system like a parachute adds complexity. That is a fair point, especially as additional systems reduce reliability. With recovery still rather dicey at present, putting the brakes on "complexity creep" is probably prudent. |
