Yep, understood The Russian programme has a bit of a history of rough re-entries, right from the get go with Gagarin's flight. I believe according to some sources the one of the cosmonauts involved in the late non "LES" abort you mentioned sustained career ending injuries.

OAP

Anyway, the way forward must be with greater reliability and less risk, and that is my opinion.
Agreed.
