Dr. Halsey has her reasons and her reasons are yet known. All we can do is speculate on them.
If you don't rememeber, Mendez somehow knew about the Artifact that the covenant were after. I think that while the covenant are distracted by earth, Dr. Halsey and her kidnapped Spartan are on a mission to recover another artifact. Mendez could have known about another artifact. Anything is possible. Do you really think that bungie would allow other Spartans to be as bad ass as MasterChief? To have better armor, more upgrades, and a better Helmet implanted AI???? I highly doubt it.
