As a child, hearing the first words spoken from the moon, i was confused at a sentence construction that was nonsensical. Once he got back , the man stated that he made a mistake in his excitement, and didn't recite his planned phrase correctly, leaving out a modifier critical to understanding.
one step for man has an interchangeable meaning with one step for mankind, no matter the circumstance.
A step for a man, is about one, singular man . As in, the history of man , or the history of mankind, both are understood as equal, the short version is more popular. The history of a man, very different.
I'm sure you know this, and I understood your point. I spelled it out for those who might not speak english well.
the singular modifier is critical to meaning. and a grammatical error that turned the first words spoken by a man, on behalf mankind, from the moon, into nonsense, went into history.
