I think you have misunderstood my comment.

The point I was trying to make was that once they have reached task saturation, items that don't threaten the aircraft at that moment are easy to overlook.

The point is that I'm sure they were doing all they could to achieve a safe outcome for the aircraft and their passengers, but may have skipped a step in cancelling the fuel dump.
