There probably isn't a single company in the world that can do the
job, nor a consortium of the either. You are seriously delusional as

Strange, given that the Russians have been building Soyuzes for

Strange, given that complexity is no barrier to building something for
decades, that you assume the longetivity of Soyuz has anything to do
with the issue.

I think you're being led astray by your constant tendency to see
spacecraft as nuclear submarines.

I think you are as ignorant and stupid of engineering realities as
ever.
