Does the fact that the question of Ikrimah was not mentioned in the text of the Hadith of Umm Al-Mu'minin Aisha about green garments mean that it did not occur, and is Umm Al-Mu'minin Aisha's raising of "sexual" topics considered impermissible to discuss?

Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) mentioned the hadith to explain a legal ruling concerning a woman divorced irrevocably (three times), who does not become lawful for her first husband until after she marries another man and he consummates the marriage with her. This is consistent with her biography, as she (may Allah be pleased with her) did not narrate hadith randomly, but rather spoke when asked, and mentioned the entire incident to clarify the ruling. The assertion that she presented this report to explain a legal ruling is consistent with the reality of the situation and her biography.
