I fear that the comment:
"If all goes well, a reused Falcon 9 will hoist AMOS-6's replacement, AMOS-8, in 2020."
may well come back to haunt them...
Of course, I am hopeful that all goes well, but it might take a bit of persuasion with the insurers if a similar problem arises (that causes the loss of another satellite):
"You've LOST another satellite? - and it was on a second-hand rocket ??"
(And yes I'm mindful that re-furbished Falcon's have been cleared to be re-used).
