Yeah, I feel it is the only reason, but it feels very werid that an alien in a much more advanced ship seeking to save their entire planet don't have ability to a approach planet at their destination.

Or rocky is a way worse pilot than Grace.

They talked about it in the book. The hail Mary has way better tech/science on it than the blip A. Basically the blip A is iridians first spaceship. It's bare bones and the shit for even collecting astrophage doesn't work. Plus rocky was literally stuck in space wondering around by himself for 40+ years and still couldn't get the stuff to work.
