Honestly, this was the best place for this to happen. Better it tip onto the floor than something fail on lift-off or while in orbit. A sat in the garage is worth 1/4 of one in orbit.
Probably wouldn't have happened during launch, though, as the mechanism attaching it to the rotational base would've been replaced with a special pyro platform rigged with explosive bolts to separate the satellite from the final carrier stage. Hopefully the people who rig the explosive bolts are a bit more thorough with their checklist.
