Mar 21, 2023 at 14:30 comment added Nicholas Kuhn Note that the splitting isn't natural, even when restricted to spaces $X$ of the form $K(A,1)$ with $A$ a $\mathbb Z/2$ vector space.
Mar 21, 2023 at 14:08 comment added Fernando Muro @TomGoodwillie I hope you don't mind me adding a paragraph following your hint.

incorporate Tom Goodwillie's hint
Mar 21, 2023 at 13:46 comment added Fernando Muro @TomGoodwillie you're right. In a previous version I was using $K(H_1(X,\mathbb{Z}),1)$ instead of $K(H_1(X,\mathbb{Z}/2),1)$ so I needed the general computation but when reducing mod 2 it's unnecessary.
Mar 21, 2023 at 10:15 comment added Tom Goodwillie I enjoyed the question, too, and the answer. Let me point out a further simplification: you do not need the Brown-Loday reference if you observe that $\pi_2^S(K(A,1))$ is a $\mathbb Z/2$-vector space whenever $A$ is a $\mathbb Z/2$-vector space.

Mar 21, 2023 at 8:52 comment added Fernando Muro @user43326 what do you find missing? I can bring it back since old versions are kept.
Mar 21, 2023 at 8:05 comment added user43326 After your edition, some crucial information that was in original version is missing so that it is impossible to follow the proof...
