Wonder how hard it would be to upload new software

That new software is likely vaporware - it doesn't exist.

The seats on the Dragon are not comparable with their suits. Dragon suits are made for the individual. Their suits are also not comparable with Dragon

There are only 2 docking ports - the current Dragon mission has one, and the Starleaker has the other. There is not practical way to un-dock the Starleaker without some one inside.

Despite the previous flight having done just that. Can they upgrade the software remotely, or does that involve change storage media?

The information I’ve seen says they don’t know if they can swap out the software or not.

The other issue is the capsule’s batteries are getting low
