I can see what some people mean by that but sometimes you do need "irrelevant detail" to get the full picture about the man and what makes the man.
There a plenty of myths about the Apollo missions and their pilots esp the one about Neil being a recluse after walking on the moon.
He did all the public stuff early on but then just wanted to get on with life so he refused a lot of interviews so disgruntled journalists filled in their own words.
Better get back to my book as Neil and Buzz are fumbling around squeezing into their 140kg suits after putting on catheter like condoms and taping plastic bag type contraptions to their bums in an area not much bigger than the back seat of a station wagon with rows of buttons all around that are really important not to hit or brake off!
Cheers
