That's quite a few individya=uals that have summitted multiple times.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Mount_Everest_summiters_by_number_of_times_to_the_summit
But you're being a little disingenuous, I think. When I say 'people' I mean humans, but all the same the argument falls with your own example, even though I'm pretty sure you understood I'm not talking about individuals, but organisations/govts. ...humans as a species.
Maybe give some examples that back up what you say - as Everest - surely one of the most inhospitable places on Earth - doesn't - and in spades; and they are just individuals. Which new territories, discovered by humans, have been abandoned after just a few visits, never to return for any given reason. Moon being the exception. I can't think of one, but you might have a list
