Hypothetically speaking, would a reusable rocket with high test hydrogen peroxide and kerosene or methanol be viable? Sure, the ISP wouldn't be nearly as high, but a closed cycle design using catalyzed HTP to run the turbopumps should allow for a longer service life and be easier to control/throttle.
You also don't have to worry about any cryogenic containment for the fuel or oxidizer, making logistics easier for the ground staging.
