Keep in mind that a Soyez is the prime rescue vehicle for the ISS. There is always one attached to the station and ready to go in case of emergency.
You have to hand it to the Russians though, they have simplicity in spacecraft design down to a fine art.
The elegance of the Soyuz design is fascinating to anyone allowed to examine it in detail. Just about anything that can break or fail has an alternate way to accomplish the task. Simple modular mechanical devices and electrical systems that can be serviced by moderately skilled technicians, in hours instead of days. They transport Soyuz rocket and capsules by standard rail all the way up to the launch pad. They have launched in blizzards. They don’t do a countdown, they just launch when it is time to launch. And their safety record is better than ours.
