So that's to say the more thrust you can get out of the bottom of the rocket, the more propellant you can get inside & the more it has potential to perform work. If they had a fixed volume, it would be more important to minimize dry mass, but here they can max thrust to max prop.

Fully reusable rockets want high T/W to minimize $/ton to orbit, because propellant cost actually matters
