The semantic intricacies actually are more subtle even with your proposed patch that implies that Mrs Steinem explicitly chose age 66 as a marriage point. I concur that the original fortune entry is misleading, too. For this reason, I propose the amendment, "Gloria Steinem, on why she had never married."
