Without PR, there is no public interest, no funding, and no astronauts in flight needing protection.

Why do you think there is big announcement, press event if not for PR?

PR is other peoples jobs, just not the people designing a suit. IMO, critical safety systems are reasonable exceptions to the PR game.
