The team took some time to assess the issue before launching the capsule, but eventually Boeing and NASA decided to proceed with flying the crew on the leaky Starliner spacecraft without resolving the problem.

That reads like the Go-NoGo decision to send them up was a roll of the dice. If the capsule leaks like that now, is it safe for the crew to return in it given the stresses it will undergo during re-entry?

This sounds exactly like the Challenger disaster.

Nearly 40 years and they are still doing the same crap..............
