Strike Gundam couldn't even STAND properly on the sand when Kira first launched. PS Armor is one thing, but how would Kira be able to fight off the BuCUES just on PS Armor alone? He needed to be able to fight against them, not just allowing himself to be hit there like those standing targets in a shooting range. Kira adjusted the OS so that he can fight against those BuCUES properly to be able to survive that battle as well.
Trying to get to the Eternal in one piece is just as important. Excuses like that don't really cut it. There are other things to consider too - Andrew was also busy trying to hold off other enemies and Kira makes a mess in Strike. Andrew already has a lot to look out for protecting the Eternal by himself, and he still has to look after Kira's back? Some ace pilot Kira is.
He's lucky the Eternal isn't swarmed by a hundred of those things or else he's already dead even before he gets to the Eternal.
