They should still make Long Dragon for Falcon Heavy so they can man-rate it, just take the existing dragon and fuse it with the currently hollow trunk section, make all of that internal space pressurized volume and include a beefier life support system to give it 30-day independent flight like Soyuz.
It could act as a good LEO bus for the small and anemic space projects that governments carry out while Starship does the heavy lifting beyond Earth's sphere of influence.
I also love how the sleek white Iphone look which used to be considered futuristic is now growing to characterize an outdated generation of space vehicles while while the next big heavy lifter will be a semi-retro steel Flash Gordon rocket.
