    Because they would have had to take the risk and come back in their leaky original vessel that made it home successfully?

      Not sure if I prefer a leaky vessel or to depend on the whims of an orange turd and an insufferable man child. Maybe the leaky ship would’ve been safer.

        Both awful choices none of the astronauts should have to deal with.

        To be fairer with the initial faulty ship, I’d say the difference in weight might have changed the odds of success.
