Neil, why are you continuing to ask questions that *you* *yourself*
provided answers for in your initial post?

Without a dedicated CRV, *all* the ISS Commercial Crew vehicles would
have the six-month stay requirement levied upon them. With a dedicated
CRV, that requirement is relaxed and the Commercial Crew vehicles would
only be required to perform short-term rotation.


SpaceX is already designing Dragon to be able to do that, for their
DragonLab commercial variant, so it doesn't really change anything for
them or add to Dragon's development costs.
