A bit, but from what I understand the systems that failed would not survive reentry, so they're staying put up there to study everything while they can. It makes sense if true.
Also, don't fly in the 787, don't fly in the 737 max.

Didn't Starliner have issues separating the service module in previous test flights? That could cause LOCV.

both of the previous uncrewed test flights were failures, this is the 3rd test flight, also a failure.
why did they launch with a crew before having a successful test flight?

Who is this "diverysity" hire?

it's technically not possible to be "stranded" on the ISS, any moreso than the regular crew are. this is damage control PR speak.

absolute worst case scenario you just detach and deorbit the Starliner module and send another reentry capsule, likely a Soyuz, up there to bring them back down.
