Why did everyone eject individually from Jupiter 2 when power failed, instead of separating the pod, which was said in an earlier episode was to also serve as a reinforced survival habitat, from the rest of the ship?

Quotes
Victor Dhar: If we can't outrun them, we can find a way to take them out, like we did on the Resolute.
John Robinson: Problem is we're not on the Resolute. There are no places to hide here. No EMFs to slow then down. No weapons to defend ourselves with. The last time we faces the robots, we threw everything we had at them, including the Resolute, and they still found us.
Victor Dhar: Then we have to get creative and think outside the box.
John Robinson: We can't save ourselves. The faster we accept that, the faster we can focus on the people we can save. Our kids. When SAR gets here, he's gonna tear the Jupiters apart to try and find the location of Alpha Centauri, where our kids are headed with his engine. Anything that might be a clue, hardware, software, maps, even photos, all of it has to be destroyed.
Maureen Robinson: We'll make teams, disconnect the shredders from the 3D printers, and disable fire safety systems so that we can do burns in the garage.
Naoko Watanabe: On it.
Maureen Robinson: And wipe the flight data from the ship's hard drives.
Don West: I can help with that. I've got a few degaussers.
Victor Dhar: Why would you have those?
Don West: Let's just say that in my previous life, I had to cover my tracks once. And by once, I mean 24 times.

The kids are alright.

With only half a season left (after this episode) "Lost In Space" resets itself again with an unexpected climax to the episode.

Ready to fly to Alpha Centuri, the young crew on the Jupiter are taunted by SAR, via the Robot, that he knows where their parents are an intends to attack. Though the children want to go and help, Judy's (Taylor Russell) mission was to get them to safety and she's unsure how to proceed. Seeing SAR's incoming ship on their long range sensors, and knowing that they have no way to defeat their enemy, the adults decide the only thing they can do is destroy everything on the ship that suggests where Will (Maxwell Jenkins) and the rest of the children might be heading, then wait for annihilation.

There were some unusually dark moments for "Lost In Space". Though the family have managed to get out of every scrape they've been in previously, they quickly acknowledged that this was it - they couldn't defeat SAR's army and accepting their fate was the best course of action. From there, the children's rescue attempt was, I'll have to admit, a bit confusing. With the recorded sounds of the alien language playing in a manner that didn't make much sense, as well as exactly who was where, on which ship and what they were doing.

Performances and visual effects have never been this shows problem and whilst we're not back to the logic issues that plagued season one this whole rescue could have done with a clearer plan and a better-defined goal. As I say though, we're left with four episodes remaining in the whole run and what looks like another mini reboot to finish it off. Intriguing.
