It would still be a good stepping stone to complete off-world industry; one of the reasons current space launches cost a lot is because you don't only want things in orbit but you want something in orbit intact and functional. A pallet of dumb steel ingots could be lopped up with something with much more generous tolerances ala the Big Dumb Booster[0], with any orbital maneuvering once up there accomplished by space tugs.
