I was wondering, SpaceX is flying NASA cargo to the ISS on their
Falcon 9, but are at the same time experimenting with reusable
booster stages. Since these experiments add risk to the flight,
how does NASA feel about all this?

The reusability test happened after stage separation. So, how does this
adds risk to the flight?

Premature landing leg deployment prior to stage separation?

Regardless, since the flight went the way it did, presumably that is
an existence proof of NASA at least being OK/willing to put-up with
it.
