Glad the capsule separated and landed successfully. Read somewhere that when spacecraft do that, anyone on board pulls way more Gs than in regular flight. Beats getting incinerated of course.
Well, yeah, the sudden boost has to exceed the main booster, but it’s brief, and as you said, beats hangin’ around to see how the main ride would wind up. :^)
One early spaceflight had a complete rocket engine failure after a “flight” of only a few feet up from the pad. As the main rocket stalled, then fell back and began burning, the capsule escape rockets fired (by the default failure of their own safety circuits), and blasted the capsule completely clear of the burning area. NASA signed off on the “capsule escape rocket test flight” ... that had not been scheduled yet!
