Titan was not more expensive than the shuttle. Titan IV ended up being wastefully expensive because they developed new SRBs that only flew a handful of times but it was still nowhere near shuttle levels.

this is complete autistic nitpicking here but there were actually two unmanned mercury capsules that got reused. Mercury spacecraft 14 flew on Little Joe 5A and 5B. And spacecraft 8 successfully aborted from Mercury Atlas 3 and was reflown on Mercury Atlas 4.

The MOL test was the first time a capsule was reused after leaving the atmosphere, though.
