I'm hoping this doesn't make me a bad person but now that there are no lives at risk I'm kinda hoping it does? I'm so fed up with corporate cost-cutting (even when it affects people's safety!) and companies surviving just based on inertia. I feel if the legal system isn't powerful enough to set a precedent against this sort of corporate practices, maybe the Starliner is. Maybe that's its purpose, and maybe that's how it makes space travel better.
