You're not addressing the main point. Which is that NASA supposedly sent MANNED vehicles into an environment without testing them first for the ability to handle that environment. This is UNHEARD OF in industry and engineering.

If it's so easy to build craft that handle 10^-12 torr vacuum, why not prove it in a vaccum chamber on earth?

What side is vacuum only matters structurally. The seals on hatches, space gloves, windows, any joint between materials, they all need to handle 10^-12 torr vacuum. That's hard because traditional seals like o-rings outgas at that pressure. You need metal on metal, single time use, seals. Without those, your precious 1 atm is leaking out into space FAST.
