it pretty well summed it up as an investigation will only take place if there is an outcome to further enhance safety. Referring to the incident of carb icing on a small plane, there was nothing new to learn, so the investigation was minimal.
Me thinks another down wind landing crunch fits that category
That's pretty much it. No serious injuries, minimal damage and it's obvious what the cause is. Really nothing to be investigated from the accident prevention aspect. They leave it to the FAA if there is any enforcement action to be investigated.
