It landed safely, the astronauts would have been fine returning on Starliner. Given the absurd number of thrusters that Starliner has, it's still safe with a couple thrusters missing.

They made the right call, and making it at the last minute while waiting for more data from tests both on the ground and in space was also the right call IMO.
