Ugh, can we please have a decent discussion thread for once? I'm so sick of all these articles being buried under like 10 replies that are just "Great job!" or "Good luck!". Can't we actually discuss something about the implications of this command change? Like, what does it say about the ISS's leadership and how will this affect future missions? 
And don't even get me started on the lack of detail in these space updates. I mean, sure, we're told that the astronauts "worked diligently to adapt" but what exactly did they do to adapt? Were there any major setbacks or was it all smooth sailing?
Some real analysis would be nice, you know?

. And extended period of occupancy? Just a fancy way of saying "more time for them to figure it out" 
. Resilience and adaptability? Please, just a fancy word for "we didn't know any better"
