In fairness the game makes it pretty clear that the Power Suit was rendered unusable in the crash, so Samus would be a sitting duck unable to access any of the modules. The restored Power Suit is sillier in my opinion, we didn't really need an explanation for a design shift. Also things like making Kraid gigantic like he was in Super misses the point, because in that game you were initially supposed to think the small Sclayd is the real Kraid at first until the real one shows up and got beefed up like Ridley. Anyway, I'd maybe put the blame of Sakurai for perpetuating the "armorless Samus can't selectively access parts of her suit" myth, except in Subspace Emissary it's shown in the story that Zero Suit Samus was separated from her Power Suit, and Samus' Final Smash has it destroyed.
