Making Humans Resistant To Radiation

This article suggests that humans could be modified using tardigrade DNA, making them resistant to radiation:

The alleged motive is to enable astronauts to survive a journey to Mars.

But wouldn't it also enable the rest of us to survive here after a nuclear war (or another Chernobyl, Fukushima, or other nuclear disaster)?

Sounds to me like just another attempt to help the super rich thrive while the rest of us die.
