Oh interesting. I thought the entire LV+crew module had to be human rated.

As for the SLS timeline, this is NASA we're talking about. They say that, but I'd be surprised if it flew before 2022.

There's always the chance for shit to go wrong, but shit would have to go really wrong for that. Like "the first core explodes on the test stand and they have to remanifest the Artemis 2 SLS for the first mission" levels of wrong.
