Yikes! I wonder if they put a hold on any PCS - permanent change of station, for anyone going on/from those ships

PCS orders are easy peasy to modify. A couple of weeks either direction won't hurt a thing.

Imagine your ETS date landing on the same day they decide to make your ship sit in the middle of the ocean for a few weeks.... after completing a long cruise.

Been there, done that. Involuntary extensions happen all the time. It's how I would up with a transfer date to the Fleet Marine Corps Reserve of 1 Aug 1994, instead of 12 July 1994......

Yeap, happens all the time. Stop loss is real. They can extend you for months. 2 weeks, no big deal.
