Apollo, yes. I don’t think it’s for reasons you might be implying (what are they, that they’re going to space to kill stuff?). They have to have people who can endure high-gs and stress. Pilots are already proven for this. A civilian they have to test and train up from nothing. I don’t think it’s some kind of secret military plot. It’s just convenience and accessibility.
“For no reason” means, “condition not being controlled for”.
To give in to superstition is bad science.
But what if the condition is the lack of worm drawing?
needs ‘x’ amount of less blue freq light
there is a chemical in the ink seeping into the container
Well tell that to NASA with their peanut superstition.
Astronauts aren’t scientists, they’re military. The military are all in on superstition.
That’s not totally true. Sure, many are military, but not all. I think all of the pilots are though, for obvious reasons.
Of all of the Apollo astronauts only one was a scientist.
Out of the entirety of the Apollo missions we got one scientist on the moon. It’s pretty clear whether US governments intentions lay.
The percentage of scientists to non-scientists is depressingly low.

Because once you get good enough at Sky you can go to Sky 2?
The science is finding how and why the superstition works.
