"Slightly low on fuel."
If I understand correctly, the margin was tight enough not to take the risk of damaging the tower.
And if the landing footage is any indication, it sure looks like they would have made the catch anyway if they'd gone for it.
They need another cheaper tower just for catching. Much less mass when landing.
