Enlighten me, please. What does a heart murmer have to do with making a mistake? Where is the proof that Grissom panicked and blew the hatch prematurely? The mistakes made by Kalpana Chawla have been well documented.

Your question revolved around second chances. And as much as I liked Grissom, NASA didnt know what caused the capsule to go down until just within the last few years.
