their space suits to keep warmer. Did they, if not why not?

Another issue is that the LM was only sized for two people in suits, so
fitting a third person in a suit may have been uncomfortably tight,
especially since they didn't want to take any chance with somebody accidently
kicking through the "hull" or breaking something else equally important.
