The other main risk for Artemis 3 timing is the suits, right? I don't see SLS+Orion being fast by any means, but they at least don't need any development work between now and then.

Artemis 3 is good but Artemis IV needs block 1b and probably BOLE. Both have elements of new development.

Artemis 4 being NET 2028 (mostly because of EUS dev time?) might take some serious wind out of the sails of this whole program, regardless of how Artemis 3 plays out.
