The company tasked to salvage the ship said that they will use dredgers and tugs and will try to pull the ship free. They also said that if that doesn't work they will have to lighten the ship, which can take weeks.

Just because we got lucky and the simpler, faster, plan worked doesn't make such reporting hyperbolic.
