The "50s tech" was not based around easily reusable systems. It was all based on explosive bolts, solid fueled ullage motors etc.

On top of that the fuel was much easier to work with and did not involve needing to be able to handle pressurization and sloshing during flips.

It's 50's tech only in the same way that a Ryzen CPU is 70's tech.
