Michel, as you must know the Mercury 13 weren’t part of a NASA program; it was a private effort.

And the reason to bring up the way we did it wrong is to insure — as stated — that this next time we send people to the moon we do it right.

In fact, as we are preparing to return to the moon now, now is specifically the time we bring up the past. To insure we don’t repeat it in the future.
