Why don`t they put it on the pad already, make the cryo tests and send it again?

One Raptor self immolated, SN15 will need to be inspected, Raptorswapped, cryo tested (likely more than once), static fired (likely more than once) then scrubbed for two weeks due to clouds
You have a few weeks to relax anon

You actually need to design them well. Blowing them up again and again doesn't help.

Extremely high chamber pressure (300 bar, up to 330 in test, highest of any engine ever) and extremely complicated full flow staged combustion cycle. Turns out the reason nobody has successfully flown an FFSC engine before is because they're hard to develop.
Don't worry though, they'll iron out the kinks eventually but it's pretty embarrassing d e s u that it's taking 100+ iterations to get something that doesn't have a 1/3 chance of melting on a 10km hop.

Full shutdown still isn't worked out. It basically kept shitting out fuel after landing which isn't the best environment for an engine to sit in.
They'll get there but I doubt it's a priority right now.

Put it in the pad today, change raptors and legs tonight.
Wednesday, two cryo tests.
Thursday, two static fire tests.
Friday launch.
Rest the weekend and start again next week.
We could have like weekly Friday launches.

who cares if an unmanned prototype welded together in a tent Challengers itself on an attempted second flight?
