They might even use propulsive landing for cargo flights.


If that was the plan before replacing the check valve(s) with burst

If so it would imply that they (SpaceX) intended to fly all the way down
with pressurized engines all along anyway, so its no big deal either
way. Otherwise it would require some re-thinking.
