There was still the problem regarding where they thought it was safe to
land the LM; the "Bonestell landscape" parts of the Moon looked iffy
from from the viewpoint of landing safely,

What were the aspects of the landing that may have caused safety
concerns? Roll over of the LM on touchdown? Contact with a cliff
edge during final descent?

Of landing into fluffy crystal dry surface, meters of deep
electrostatic charged dust, not to mention those steep enough bedrock
or crater rim surfaces that would be clear of that crystal dry and
physically dark and otherwise nasty dust that's everywhere.
