Seems pointless to keep persisting with it given the ISS is approaching EOL. There are also a finite supply of boosters left it can fly on.

Wasn't it also supposed to go to the moon station for Artemis? Or is that also a non-starter if Starship works out?

You're probably thinking of Orion which is being manufactured by Lockheed Martin and Airbus.
