$\begingroup$ "...so everyone needs to know how the Soyuz works so they can operate the capsule in an emergency." That's clear but not the need to learn Russian. You could probably get to know how the Soyuz works also if everything regarding it were translated into English and all personnel were speaking English. I think the point about English being an international language is kind of valid. $\endgroup$
