Some reusability stats for this launch (Starlink Group 7-11):
Launchpad SLC-4E turnaround time: 9 days 15 hours 36 minutes
(the previous launch from this pad was Starlink Group 7-10 on Jan 14, 2024 UTC).
Does that include the scrub days due to weather, or is it available for launching?

It's just a time between two consequent launches (not launch attempts!) While we don't have any reliable info on the *real* launchpad readiness time for every mission, I suppose it's the best metrics available, all scrubs and technical delays included.
Is this the most-scrubbed F9 launch?

Can't you go by the first launch attempt on the same pad? It's not like they're going to try to launch before they completed pad turnaround. (Or maybe yes, the first attempt was possibly scrubbed for technical reasons - they never said it was due to weather and it scrubbed just after startup - perhaps the pad was not ready
