I think it's become necessary. The new strains also forced Canada's hand to implement very similar measures two weeks ago.New executive order - looks like there is a suggested quarantine upon reentry into the US from foreign countries, including at sea ports of entry. It says within 14 days they will publish further info on what this all means, what negative tests are acceptable, what form of vaccination proof will be seen as legitimate, etc.

What's more ominous for cruise lines is 5(d):
Sea Travel. The Secretary of Homeland Security, through the Commandant of the Coast Guard and in consultation with the Secretary of HHS and the Director of CDC, shall, within 14 days of the date of this order, submit to the President a plan to implement appropriate public health measures at sea ports.
It's not a plan to 're-open' but a plan to 'implement appropriate public health measures at sea ports'. It might entirely torpedo the CSO from November.
