"Any other company would put a mass simulator on" - that's obviously false, most companies and agencies put an actual payloads on their first launches of a rockets. Dummy payloads were common in cold war, but not any more.
These rockets actually flew with dummy payloads on 1st flight: - Delta IV Heavy - F9 - Japan's H-II & H-IIA - Zenit (both the -2 & -3SL for Sea Launch) - Atlas-Centaur (multiple flights) - Titan III & IIIE (the later failed) - Angara (both A1.2 & A5) - Ariane 1
The Orion on the next SLS flight will probably be riddled with simulators as well
Btw, F9 first flight was a Dragon qualification unit
And that was just a piece of metal in the shape of a Dragon.
There are rockets that had to fly with dummy payloads after failing the first flight(s) - Ariane 5 flew dummies on early flights after the first one w/ @ESA_Cluster blew up. Delta III had to fly one on its 3rd (successful) flight after the first two failed.
