When's a prospect just a young veteran? Sure, pitchers get hurt and get hurt all the time.
But TINSTAAPP is largely the belief that there's so many steps/hurdles to clear along the way that until a guy gets to the big leagues without his arm having torn clear from his body, you can't count on him.
Weaver made it to the big leagues seemingly intact and showing the same ability to get swings and misses. That's that big final step to establishing yourself less as a prospect and more as a young major leaguer.
