The telemetry has not been lost. Where did this info came out?
Discussion
Do a quick internet search.
Quick internet search give imperfect information if not total bullshit. They only lost some raw video tapes of one single mission. Years ago a company recovered almost all the telemetry after recovering and fixing the old recorders able to read the tapes.
even wikipedia contradicts you:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apollo_11_missing_tapes
wheres your source for the claim you make in the last sentence because I am fidning nothing when searching for that?
I've personally used these...

Yes this presents a problem ostensibly…
I haven’t done a deep dive on that one but as far as I can tell the two most trumpeted responses to that, from the denier community, are that the same thing has been accomplished without such aids, using just the surface properties. And it seems this checks out - though someone countered with an argument about the precision differences. And the other objection suggests that the reflectors were placed there later, or perhaps by other nations ‘in on it’…
definitely something I need to dig a bit deeper into before concluding defeat though…
"They were taped over."
glad to see someone else posting about the "they were taped over" jaw-dropper...

"The data is missing."
Ask yourself why searching google only this info comes up and nothing about the recovery of the tapes they did years ago. I do not trust google especially when the answer is the same exact into repeated by the mainstream sites over and over again. There were many missions, only the videos received via radio of the landing were lost, nothing else.
