Least credible plot aspect

Having watched this film a couple of times and read some of the comments on IMDB, it seems to me that there are a few credibility stretches in this movie. I think the one that I've seen remarked on the most is that he chooses the brunette over the redhead. But possibly another one for me is why he's on a trip to Titan with two hot chicks in the first place! What do you think is the least credible plot point?

That would have to be the amazing "Delta sleep" NASA&co came up with in 2017.

Both "hot chicks" have been assigned to go along with Jack on the mission to Titan; it just so happens that one of them was his wife. How EXACTLY is that an unbelievable plot point given the setting of the story (an advanced doomsday AI wandering throughout the cosmos consuming water from planets?)

I felt that Beech's (Morgan Freeman) group of survivors (Scabs) were able to either create or maintain those fancy environment suits they were wearing. Or the ability to maintain their weapons and have bullets, or where they got their food.

Even with all that, I am still able to suspend disbelief and enjoy this movie.
