Quote was "single tile in most places" e.g. loss in critical points.

EVCollies, Boeing did not do integrated system test and missed problem with timing error with Atlas->Starliner. SpaceX does integrated testing. And if you look here, Boeing is really have mastered the "fly little" approach:

They changed the Centaur's valve, but not service module helium valve (doghouse valve, port manifold 2). Valve works even if seal deteriorate more, and leak is still tolerated. (If service module would needed to be de-staged, it would be the months long delay, rumored before) Other words; risk...

"Elon Musk SpaceX has no need for additional capital and will actually be buying back shares. We do liquidity rounds for employees and investors every ~6 months."

Centaur's buzzing oxygen valve and Starliner's helium leak are two different problems. And your reasoning is backwards. SpaceX build and know their systems. That knowledge is most parts with ULA's and Boeing's subcontractor or subcontractor's subcontractor. And their communication don't seems to...

This is not funny anymore. Starliner delay is not days or weeks, it's months if rumors are true.

"The Crew Flight Test of Boeing's Starliner spacecraft is no longer targeting Saturday, May 25..."

Technically Dragons are named by crew, and not by SpX. But that don't change fact that SpX used those names, so it can be true with ships.

"Starliner teams are working to resolve a small helium leak detected in the spacecraft’s service module" Said Boeing official in shrilling high pitched voice, "leak is small and do not cause more concern"

Let get those things going:
