I'm all for thinking through things and trying to ponder what might gave caused an airplane to crash, but what is interesting here is that this was a company test pilot, doing company work, and folks on the internet seem to think they know what happened.
Yeesh, people speculate. But no we don't think we are going to prove what happened. That's totally not the point. We know we don't know. It's the exercise, the discussion which is what counts. And as more info comes out including the results of the investigation, we can follow along at home and learn from seeing how reality diverged from our own limited analysis. This is what everyone does every day with everything, you hypothesize, and then reality helps you to adjust your worldview, and you grow. Toddlers do it, adults do it, and good pilots do it.
No one here has tried to argue they proved anything.
In the end we become more thoughtful and aware about different aspects of aviation. And maybe we adjust our own practices in light of understanding risk better.
It's a discussion just like this that had me install a backup AI for instance.
