That bit confused me as well. I’m thinking in case the launch and deployment failed, they could get it back much more easily

This thing launched 50 years ago, it and it’s sister probe are farther from earth than anything else by multiple orders of magnitude, they’re literally outside the sun’s influence. We obviously aren’t getting them back so recovery must mean recovery to an operational state
