You continue to display your profound ignorance of what the phrase
"human rated" means.

It was a boilerplate crew module, without a parachute recovery
system. Once the crew module separated and was out of the
near-field flow field behind the launch abort system, the test was
over.
The flight data was telemetered to the ground. As a back-up,
ejectable data recorders were used as a second means to get the
flight data if there was a telemetry system failure. The ejectable
data recorders were ejected after crew module separation.
After reentry from orbit, or after an abort, drogue parachutes are
deployed. (There are modes where you go direct to the main
parachutes.) As the boilerplate crew module had no parachute
system, it had no drogue parachutes.
The crew module has to be stable after separation from the launch
abort system for a short period of time before deployment of the
drogue parachutes. (Or for the short period of time before you go
direct to the main parachutes.) The crew module was stable for this
short period of time.
Tumbling later in the flight shows why drogue parachutes are used.
Drogue parachutes are lighter than other options of reconfiguration
of the outer mold line, Center of Gravity (CG) shift beyond what is
built into the capsule for a small Lift-over-Drag (L/D) ratio during
hypersonic reentry, or other options.
As I noted; after the crew module separated from the launch abort
system, the test was over.

Subject: [AR] Orion Abort Test Failure...
...Not Human Rated. Orion Abort Test was a complete and utter
failure, yet NASA calls it a success?
I can make some assumptions about what they did, like. The shape of
the Orion Capsule is correct. The Center of Gravity (CG) is correct.
Given these two assumptions, this Orion Capsule test was a complete
and utter failure. Back to the drawing board and re-design the
entire Capsule, it's not Human Rated.
NASA showed this

Yet, here is what the Orion Capsule flying through the atmosphere.

I would hardly call this "Stable" flight. Exactly how many RPM do
NASA Astronauts like to be spinning at, when they impact the water?
Gees, can you imagine what it would be like to "Work the Problem"
tumbling at that rate?
The Orion Capsule is unstable. --
