Air Locks: Why Require Moon?

So one thing I am frustrated with is that Air Locks require Meteoric Iron, which can be only gotten from the moon. This is highly counter productive.

You mean to tell me we're supposed to load up in survival, get the fuel and rocket, land on the Moon, only to have to search for meteoric iron without a base, hoping we can find a meteor without our air supply being lost, all the while having tons of other equipment needed to make a good base, but not able to do it because we need METEORIC IRON to make an Air Lock.

And before you go saying to use the bubble, I feel the bubble isn't realistic at all, and downright cheap and cheaty, so I don't use it, and forcing a player to have to use something that is cheap to make a Moonbase is rather infuriating.

Is there any way that you can make it require, say, Aluminum or Bronze instead of Meteoric Iron to make the Air Lock?
