"One small step for (a) man. One giant leap for mankind."

Makes sense to me both ways!
Without the (a) ...
It was both a small step and a giant leap for man(kind).
Landing on the moon was a small step in man's exploration of space.
But as an intellectual and technological achievement, it was a giant leap forward.
