737 Driver, Uplinker,
Loss of situational awareness’

How do you know that you have lost awareness; compare this with an illusion. Awareness exists, unfortunately it doesn’t match the real situation, nor therefore the actions required.
Do you have an illusion of understanding these accidents.
If you have lost something, what was ‘this’ which you already had. How did you acquire it in the first instance.

Reduce power shortly after take off - compare with other emergencies where the climb is continued to a safe altitude, e.g. fire.
It’s a hazardous option to reduce power early in the climb, particularly with a ‘don’t sink’ alert - ET.

L 39 Guy,
When quoting 777 SFO and 777 DBX, consider the particular systems contributions, lest you start agreeing with 737 Driver.
