I agree.
English is my first language, and the more I read the headline, the more I see it as
"Something terrible happened, and the near miss is possibly the cause".
- MBCook 9y agoWhen I fist saw the headline that's why I went to read it. I wanted to know how a near miss 'possibly caused' the biggest disaster in airline history. The story was very interesting. The title is technically valid. But as another native speaker I think it's very confusing.
