Is it possible a wind gust during the go around took them temporarily overspeed and that could have happened to anyone at that exact time?

The approach looks to have been broken off quite early at around 1500 feet and there were unsubstantiated rumours elsewhere that was due to a wind shear alert

Has this only been publicised because it happened to the shiny new plane that a lot of people are wishing to try out? If it had been an A32x or B777 not a single word would have been publicly uttered about it?
