nah lol. mars wankery is pretty cringe in general. After the first high of having boots on mars wears off it becomes a wasteland curiosity just like moon. Area for research and prospector outposts/sats/bots doing very boring and very mundane tasks like studying the bodies. Main attraction is finding resource deposits, from ores to water, which then later becomes the basis for space industrialization via mining. Much, MUCH later you can talk about some secondary branches like perma colonists. Until then its like living on a oil rig in very hostile environments

Frankly building very big cargo ships in orbit that never land and staffing them with crew moving between planets seems a far more feasible prospect of getting larger groups of humans into semi-perma space residence. Or cruise ships doing short trips like a trip around the moon

Spider mecha with grappler, glue gun and melee weapon
You can't fight with fragile suit and any projectile you fire may pierce a pressurized hull and doom everyone.
In orbit it's even worse, one of the reason we may never have conventional warfare in orbit is the Kessler syndrome dooming mankind.

And no, you can't afford to armor your spacecraft against debris moving faster than antitank bullet.
