Why was Neil Armstrong and not Buzz Aldrin the first man to step foot on the moon?

Buzz Aldrin though the year 1968 had debated who should climb out of the LM (Lunar Module) first based off of the tradition from Geminii that the Pilot would climb out of the vehicle for a EVA (extra-vehicluar activity). In the spring of 1969 Deke Slayton and other NASA officials made the desicion and Neil Amrstrong and Buzz Aldrin were then told. Due to the design of LM the door opened so that the commander was to be the first man to step of of the LM. This design had been made by the engineers at Grumman and was completely random. This is why Neil Armstrong was the first man out on the moon and not Buzz Aldrin.And Armstrong is the one who step on the moon first.
