Don't you think that the fact that the mission was unmanned meant that they knew that they're not ready for manned ones yet? So nobody was rushing, as you put it.
What? It clearly states in the article they knew it was risky... I would consider that rushing.
Sure, but it's not rushing as in "let's skip steps of the plan for the sake of time," like it happened with, say, oceangate. It was a calculated risk.

We've just had more information come out, and it appears you're right about the rushing! I'll eat crow on that
