Do they prefer it to NASA doing it personally though? That's the question.

At that point, it doesnt matter what they prefer, because NASA doesnt personally have anything available to do it. Besides aforementioned private company.

If they cant send anything up themselves, its gonna be a PR shitshow for them no matter what, so they might just end up choosing what makes the US look the least good.

Propaganda! The contracted company was specifically called "the Not-Space Company" . The CEO Melon Eusk was very clear as he tweedled his mustache
