This is a silly take. There are two options, Starliner with X units of risk, Dragon with Y units of risk. Given what we know, X is greater than Y. The only reason to choose Starliner at this point is because in the event of it not killing them, some mid level managers at Boeing don't look as bad.
Is that a good enough reason to gamble with someones life? I don't think reasonable people can come to different conclusions here.
If we're pushing the envelope of technology and humankind's ability to do cool shit and people die in the process, you can argue that it's worth it, and that's fine, reasonable people can disagree. But that's just not what is happening here.
