Until they weren't.
High risk options followed by no options. But no, not stuck. Definitely not stuck.
Incorrect, there was always an option, even if a higher risk option. Higher risk options is a different thing than 0 options. 0 options would be stranded. As far as I know the higher risk options were never considered too high to be equivalent to unusable
In all your previous 'goal tending' comments, this was the first to explicitly admit there was indeed a "RISK" in using the other avenues of escape you kept adamantly mentioning to rebut the applicability of the word "stranded."
Yet, you continue to dismiss the notion that perhaps these astronauts weren't brought back beforehand because the use of those avenues didn't outweigh the elevated risks posed by their condition &/or in their actual use as an escape vehicle absent some immediate, catastrophic emergency occuring on the space station where caution is thrown to the wind.
In other words, your responses appear disingenuous, as if you're reading from a script or something to protect the messaging or narrative surrounding this event; why not shift gears away from what "stranded" actually means & instead try saying something positive & hopeful that this current rescue attempt is successful?!?! Seriously, is that too hard to do?
