We can agree that not all skepticism is valuable skepticism though? I came across this Rand report on the NTSB [1, 1999?]. The conclusions were not good about the funding & staffing levels vs modern accident load. Partly due to more incidents, but moreso due to increased systems complexity per incident. So the NTSB, with a budget of around USD$100M, takes multiple years to deliver a report. And they're a professional worldwide standard on accident investigation. Suffice to say, we're not going to crack this case open on HN. Which isn't to say it isn't productive to debate the relative merits of different regulatory approaches, takeaways for other disciplines, lessons learned, and all manner of things. But let's just have some humility in pretending we're all experts on everything [2].
