It appears that NASA believes that a relatively routine Space Shuttle EVA is more important that the first attempt to land a spacecraft on the surface on a planetoid: Hey, NASA's got quite a bit more $$$ tied up in the EVA. You make the call.

The first time one of these asteroid landers comes back with a detailed chemical / mineralogical analysis of an asteroid, with a workable extraction plan, the priorities list will change.
