A one-time, take it or leave it offer, was an insufficient effort in my opinion.

I've seen this mentioned a few times now. I think I missed something. What makes you say this was a "one-time, take it or leave it offer"? The provisions negotiated by the "gang" had only just been released, so not even members of the Democratic caucus in the Senate had really any chance to weigh in - nor enough GOP Senators to get to 60. Much less anyone in the House. Typically - or even super-fast bills - aren't take it or leave it at that stage, particularly before they've been whipped to get enough votes to pass.

So why the belief that this was "take it or leave it" already?
