How so? SpaceX is a proven launch system at this point, ULA has plenty of business, and SLS isn't going anywhere soon, so there aren't many options for new entrants.



I won't be that sure about SLS anymore with many recent events concerning it: - it failed to do full mission length firing during during the Green Run testing - its main supporter in the Senate Shelby announced he is going to retire - Europa clipper will launch on Falcon Heavy instead of SLS - early Gateway parts have been recently announced as also launching on Falcon Heavy

Not much left for SLS to do & its cost and delays are unly getting more insane by the day.
